Ok heres the thing as of today, i came home from work and pulled the tranny...again...i was looking at the pump priming valve, it was locked all the way down. i adjusted the plug i put in there so the priming valve moves freely and locktited the plug in place. the front pump is seating all the way into the front clutch drum and both steel seals are in place and locked. i didnt see anything else. while i have this tranny down is there anything anyone can think of before i stick it back up in there tomorrow? well i think i just about covered it all, i mean i know the converter is engaging the pump tangs its a brand new pump...priming valve is loose...cant think of anything else that would cause a no pressure situation other than the pressure regulating spring but i put the stiffest one in there from the shift kit, so its not like its loose. i remember the kit gave like three different springs i used the full race spring.... later,Joe
