Good to know Greg. Is that the servo that is located on the left side behind the valve body? I guess if that is the lowband/reverse servo than that is probably it lol. IIRC i think the transgo kit I just put in replaced that servo or maybe it was just springs. I think if the trans is belly up, the servo should be towards the tailshaft on the passenger side, correct??

I just picked it up anyway. I figured, as you said yourself, the core is worth that alone. But now I feel a little better about the purchase. This trans is probably gonna go in the rafters till I get money to built it. I just didn't wanna let that deal go buy. I still have to save money for my verter dammit.

BTW my transgo is installed except for the stiffer clutch springs behind the pump. (I havent removed my 60e yet because my bastard brother took my garage space because we live in a HOA and people were complaining about his El Camino sitting on jackstands so the build has ceased because I litterally have no room to continue my trans. Anyway, his driveshaft should finally be here this Fri.).

I used a 1.5" or 1.75" split collar shaft and 2 c-clamps to remove it. However it felt like the pump was binding on something so I stopped the process. Is this something I should worry about or can I just pull it all the way out?

Also what's the deal with the dial indicator I'm seeing guys use? Is that necessary if I'm not installing new clutch packs?
Again I am transmission illiterate.

Thanks guys
