Unfortunately yes it is.
My 60E pan didn,t look that bad when I pulled it and it was toast.

That really does suck.
My advice is to call Carl Rossler, he will build you a kick *** TH400.
My other advice is install this yourself when it arrives and don,t let those hamfisted local automotive hacks at your car no more.

geez, I really hope that you did this all on a visa/master card. I wouldn't even call the shop, just reverse the charges. What a bunch of crap.

If you paid cash, I'd burn down the shop to save other people the same fate.

I'm running a rossler th400 and with the few miles I have on it so far I love it. I see nothing but good comments about rosslers work.

I can't believe how many shitty tranny shops there are. It's not hard to do good work and get good at something. I'm pretty sure a monkey could have built you a better transmission.

I will talk to them tomorow and see what happens. I would love to get a Rossler, but shipping to Alaska adds allot to the cost.

Wow as some one else said you got screwed. It almost looks like lint from a rag! I am interested in what is found when the old tc is cut open. Keep in mind that if the tc is coming apart it might have hurt the trans. Judging by the fluid it doesn't look good. If there is anything we can do...let us know. Vince

Thanks Vince. I am not sure if it is lint from a rag, or clutch material from the trany.
P.S. The torque converter was bought used from this forum. That is a risc people take when buying used stuff.

one of the best things you can do is to install a 300lb. pressure guage and keep an eye on it. all automatic transmissions are 100% hydraulic and good pressure is the key. good luck
