Did the set-screw case-mod and drain-plug while waiting for VB

... tic-toc, Clarise....

Since I have to wait a couple days for the VB to show up, I went ahead and performed the Sonnax set-screw case mod (and added two additional as well). Also finished adding the drain plug to the deep pan. Turned out nice:

Donny's valve body arrived earlier in the week; ... time for round #2. I'll let y'all know how it goes....

Mikey likes it!! Works great

Just finished putting in one of Donny's valve bodies from Central Valve Bodies and I am definitely a happy camper today.

As Phil would say, NOW we're cookin' with peanut oil! Much much better. No delays, no slips, no flares and all gears work. And... no trouble codes!

I drove it about 50 miles today, and will report back after I've accumulated a few thousand more. Just wanted to thank everyone here for tolerating my numerous posts, and also for all the valuable info.

Also wanted to give Central Valve Bodies a tip-of-the-ole-hat. I will definitely recommend them to anyone.

Thanks again!
