TriX5 is on a distinguished road
Phil - that is a superb photo!

I did not do it this way. I removed the towers and the F-clutch from the housing but then did the disassembly and re-assembly unit by unit. My wife saw me take out the towers and gave me a hand with the valve blocks and the A/B clutch pistons when I needed three (or four) hands. So she appreciates the complexity!!

I left the picture of RDM's parts open on the computer screen in the kitchen this morning and when she walked through and saw it, she was quite amused by the display of courage taking all apart at once!

Mine is attached to the motor again with 6 bolts but that was the last I had time for on Friday morning. I am traveling until the 25th so it will be a while before I can get the whole thing completed and running. With luck on the 27th I'll be ready to fill it with ATF as I also need to put the intake back and reassemble the fuel rail to the intake, etc..

Cttly in the big apple, then Fla. for a week of vacation and then to Canada for work....! RDM, I'll keep monitoring your progress! Looks like you'll be done before me!
