When is the last time you've had a pump seal that came out of a transtec kit that leaked? (not counting installer error or a walked bushing, etc)
Never...
When's the last time you've had a pan gasket leak...when installed properly with a good pan...never. Cork, duraprene, molded with steel torque limit inserts, etc. Doesn't matter
I bet these people you'll spend all this time and energy on making sure they get " the best metal clad seal known to the history of man" will be the same people that don't vacuum check a valve body, don't check the pump gear clearances, etc
I appreciate an attention to detail, but I'm not sure this is the best area to focus the efforts.
Good luck tho!

If you are looking to get "complete" rebuild kits, then I offer the most complete rebuild kits and I tailor them to match what you have as far as horsepower/torque, what is done to the motor, any power adders (nitrous, supercharger, turbo), rear end gear ratio, the torque converter stall and diameter, what is the vehicle used for, daily driver or weekend warrior, and how you drive. Conservative, moderate, moderate/aggressive or aggressive. I always offer help and or what is needed, even if you do not spend a penny with me.
