Well, we're sticking to the plan of hitting in in February. That'* the next time that I'm going to have money in the budget to give it another whack. In the mean time, I'm trying to find out the viability of using a t65 valve body and pump, as they should be a bit more durable and cheaper to boot. I'll provide updates as available.

The pump can be accessed with the side cover and the valve body removed. You do need to lower the subframe, or at least the left side of the subframe.

Would be easier to just lower the trans and engine through the bottom and remove the pan.
