Time for transmission repair, any suggestions?

[Tosh Dickenson]

My '64 CDV is starting to have torque converter issues.  I'm going to pull the trans and send it to a shop I trust.  Even thought I don't have any trans issues (except for a leak at the modulator) I'm going to ask them to give the trans a freshening up.

Any tips or upgrades you can suggest while they've got it?  I'm going to have them keep it stock, no shift kits, etc.  While it's out I'll be changing the rear main and oil pan gasket so tips on that are appreciated to!

I have a previously rebuilt 1964 429 Torque Converter for $100 + s/h.  It was installed but saw limited miles then removed and I now have both up for sale.  I have inserted a picture below but can see more of the torque converter and transmission by Clicking Here. If interested email me at [e-mail] and include shipping address.

Yes I saw his post.  Pretty sure shipping of a trans would be a deal breaker and as I stated in my post I already have a trusted rebuilder.  It's a turbo 400 so shouldn't be too complex lol.

If not in a super hurry I can ship the torque converter from NC to OR via UPS Ground for $70 for a total of $170. That's not too bad for a super nice piece.  I'm guessing about $350 to ship the transmission but you would need to confirm with engineshipping.com. Still a $1000 or more less than a rebuild even with shipping.
