Default th400 rebuilds?

looks like i killed my th400, 4 years of highway drives, track days, 200 shot launches and then driving 2 hours home has finally killed it..

lost second gear and had burning trans fluid smell. looking for a rough estimate on what it should cost to rebuild. i bought it from ati, it's a competition reverse manual valve body with a trans brake setup. what should i typically expect to be charged to have it rebuilt? i know that without looking at it they don't know exactly what needs replaced and i know there are a lot of variables but i figured there would be a general price.. thanks!

Around here a good shop usually charges 800-1200 for a rebuild depending on what parts are needed. You can find cheaper but the reputable shops are usually around that price.
