Anyone use TransGo 700PKH in their builds? Doesn't look like it'll do much, the pump spring is just hardly stiffer than the stock one. I guess the rings are unbreakable, that can't be bad.
Now I think I have every one of their products in my trans.
Anyone use this kit?
I guess they don't call it the 'no yo yo kit' anymore.

No. Every part I took off looked good.
It's always had half a drip since I got it at 22,500 miles. After taking it out the first time for a shift kit (internal parts) and internal upgrades it was worse the drip would hit the floor. So I took it out again and did everything except the bushing. Still dripped.
Then at 35,000 it got thrown under my bench because of an M6 swap.
Now it's back in a different car. Original converter still (the whole time too).
Before I pulled it everything was dry except the very bottom of the bellhousing, the converter was dry.
But when I stuck my finger in the small hole it came out covered in trans fluid.
The pan gasket was slightly damp, I always use a torque wrench on the pan too believe it or not. Cooler lines got new o-rings when it was put in this car 2000 miles ago they were dry, servo dry, dipstick tube dry, linkage dry.
I put in new pump and tail bushings and seals, pump and tail o-rings, pump gasket, pump bolt o-rings.
There were no nicks or scrapes on the gasket and o-ring contact areas.
When I got it back together this time a little fluid spilled out of the converter putting it back on the trans, tried to flush it out of the bellhousing.
Drove it maybe 15 miles and it was wet with fluid and 1 quart too full, so I put a small drain pan under it and drained it, via aftermarket plug, forgot the drain pan under there (which was full of fluid from draining it the first time) and backed down the driveway. Well at that point the whole underside from the crossmember to the front air dam was dripping
because it caught the drain pan and dragged it down the driveway.
I said F it, this is one reason I don't do this as a hobby as much anymore.
Then I said I can't say F it and got some brake cleaner and sprayed it all off until the can wouldn't spray. I still didn't get it all.
So I don't know if it fixed the problem yet.
Sorry about the long post.
