Wow. Not for the faint of heart. I have rebuilt transmissions professionally for over 40 years. My suggestions are as follows: 1) get the ATSG manual. You will regret it if you don't. They don't cost that much, and have a world of information in them. 2) Be sure to replace ALL clutch pack seals and servo seals. A primary cause of failure is that the seals get hard over time and begin to leak. 3) Check and adjust clutch pack clearances to the lower end of the tolerance. Clearances are set with selective snap rings. 4) unit end play is also important. Too much end play will prematurely wear out the seals and will beat up on the thrust washers. Keep it to the small end of the tolerance, but do NOT go outside of tolerance. Need to have room for thermal expansion as well as keeping things fairly tight. 5) As has been already stated, clean the valve body in solvent and make sure each valve moves easily with a small screwdriver. Valves that have springs should move easily against the spring and return on their own. Valves without springs should move either way on their own weight. No need to disassemble any more than necessary to check the valves. Check ball location is also important. Above all, do not use any abrasives on valves or bores.
