Have you thought about trying a 700r4?

I have a dead 700r4 in my garage I'd sell ya cheap, and your guts besides the valve body will fit right in it.. It's bolted to a np203.
We think this one died because the lockup switch was never hooked up. So cleaned up it should be good for a core.

No would have to buy stuff and reprogram the ecm. I would just rather go 4l80e at that point.
Can't you source a rebuilt from GM through your dealership? Warranty and all? Might be worth the additional cost up front.
Put a carburetor on the engine...
That was for Martin.

Yes I can get a certified built one for about 1900 last time I checked.
based on that video and what your saying about the grinding it sounds like the sunshell is broken or fractured. I would not even move it until you know for sure it is not other drivetrain because if you do you risk grenading the case and everything around it, pulling that IO shaft out and swapping the clutches and other stuff over to a new output with a good shell should not be expensive. because right now it is all new still.
Edit: The splines on the sunshell could be stripped too.

Does that include the 50 quarts of fluid?
I can honestly say that I've lost track of the all the transmission issues you've had.
That is what we believe is the issue, it's a beast shell but that doesn't mean much

Just added it up . I have spent about 320 dollars on fluid.
Your not the first to say that on the Beast sun she'll. My builder no longer uses them after 4 problems with them. He use to only use them.
crazy!
That's even at employee discount of GM Dex6
That's nice to have, even cheaper fluids can add up really quick.
This^^^^^^^^^^^ Idk If I'd consider multiple cheap transmissions that don't work lucky

I was thinking that he's been getting what he's paid for.
So old math tells me $1600 + $350 = $1950. $50 over the GM built one with the warranty. Plus R&R 4 times and all of the missed fun and non driving days.
No brainer in my book.

Not a bad choice, but don't forget you've got Greg Ducato lurking on this site too... For my money, I'd put him on the case (pun intended)

Correct, but 700 was supposed to be a good trans and it was all I could afford at the time. The guy build it completely wrong.
I know that hindsight is 20/20, but rebuilding automatics sure does seem to be a crap shoot. Gotta find a guy who knows his stuff, but I'm not sure how you can know that ahead of time.
