Default TH350 has been sitting

Quick question. I have a full comp TH350 (LS conversion with converter) fresh back from Art Carr... three years ago. I put it in the car and took it around the block before taking the car apart and storing the trans. I am wanting to sell it, but am concerned if sitting for 3 years may have caused any issues. I don't want to pass it onto someone only to have them contact me later with issues. I have kept fluid in it and it has been in a dry garage. all ports have been sealed. Also, the converter was in place, but suspended by a converter holder so it was not resting on the front seal.

Thanks for the help.

Should be no problem, I have had them sitting for years and were fine-after install the person should fill it, fire it up and let it warm up so everything is lub'ed again b4 driving, but otherwise no problem

My th350 must have sat at least 3+ years. Bolted it in and ran it down the track. No issues.
