I had my biggest problem with putting a Sonnex Zip Kit in my valve body. Get yourself a ATSG book for the 6L80 it will help out a lot, I got my book from amazon. Richard is right it is something you can do yourself at home if you are mechanically inclined but you will have to buy a few tools to do it.

I do alot of different mechanic work. Hydraulics caterpillar cars trucks loaders, skidders, excavator, skid steer tractors. Bailer who knows. I own tools. I am mainly an operator or logger. Mostly faller. I put one together. I enjoyed it. So i tore it back down and built it a few times. That was about 2015. Barely had utube than. But i wasn't aware of it. That trans still works very good. With the 460 i barely adjusted the modulator to shift sooner so it dropped rpm shift just a little. I managed with extra tranny to put in 6 clutches. Picking the best plates and taking out the spring plates. I put a ball in the forward reverse monitor in tail so it would never get hung up. I drilled out a few walls in the valve body for oil flow. I used the better spragges and copper shims. 1977 f250 highboy and it gets used hard towing 4x4ing. Heavy towing and overweight hauling. Very abused and 7 years later still working.

Seems as though TransGo specifically knows something about that one check ball because they put an "X" on the diagram so, it's likely a phone call to them will answer the concern. It's good to know your shop checks into those issues before making the decision to go with or without it. You would think those "paddles" in the pump are what damage the bell housing side of the pump. Maybe GM needs to go back to a ring gear design that has way more surface area to take up the stresses. It's really interesting to know that your shop processes retain repairable and reusable parts vs. depend on suppliers 100% with each build. I'm finding out there are many trans builders who do not save good parts or stock up on new parts to have a buffer when parts are on backorder for one example. That is simply common sense for this kind of specialty.

Read your shift kit instructions again, Late models have that extra check ball. It shows you right in the shift kit instructions X equals 1 .250 check ball In the X location on late model transmissions.

It takes a skill & a ton of knowledge to bulid them right, 💰 🤑 💸 as well.

Its nice to see the teardown, but would like to see the build with all the good Sonnax, Transgo, ect parts. The repair of the stator pump valves, ect. Any special checks that you do that most transmission guys don't do when assembly this transmission. Thanks

The build is his bread and butter. Very few shops will show the build. Check out the "Automatic Transmission" YT channel for complete teardown, rebuild and kit modifications.
