OUCH!  I have a warranty transmission if you are interested, not sure of the year though.  Numbers matching is okay, but its how you build it thats best in my eyes.

got any pics of the internals?

To be honest, I think that I just over revved it when I took it out for a lil run after I put int he 4.11's,...
My cousin that was behind me swears that I shifted into Rev while goin before it exploded (he swears he saw the rev lights come on)
But idunno,.. Im still but hurt about it.
How could I go about fixing it, lets say I wanted to. I didnt think you could weld the housings..

he talked about it here ghoste

I would seriously question the safely of that trannie if It was welded. I don't think the difference matching numbers is worth the possibility of that thing blowing and seriously hurting the driver or someone that happens to behind the car when it blows out again. I feel for you loss. But I would question the judgement on fixing it.

With all th BS over matching numbers is over I don't think too many guy's even look at the Tran's numbers! most are just concerned with the engine block.

These cars were Hot rods from the factory Most all were turned into street fighters and weekend warriors blowing engines and tyrany's left and right.

Personally I wouldn't even care about the Tran's Now if its the engine Block like in my case thats another story! Thats why I bought my car Because the engine was original I didn't even check the Tran's I didn't care about it. After all the Tran's I went threw as a Kid I know they are weak.

By the way your Trany can be saved check out this web sight,

That is priceless...usually its the woman making the excuses  :yesnod:
Earth. Even the word sounded strange to me now... unfamiliar. How long had I been gone? How long had I been back? Did it matter? I tried to find the rhythm of the world where I used to live. I followed the current. I was silent, attentive, I made a conscious effort to smile, nod, stand, and perform the millions of gestures that constitute life on earth. I studied these gestures until they became reflexes again. But I was haunted by the idea that I remembered her wrong -Solaris

This is another reason why I think the auction hype on these cars is out of hand.  They should be driven and enjoyed (to me anyway), and here is someone so worried about the value of his investment going down he turned down an offer from the gf.  I'm not making light of your situation or your feelings on this myrtle, but the fact is the trans is toast and if you were only worried about the difference in value of numbers matching versus non-matching, you shouldn't have been driving it hard in the first place. 
Since you installed 4:10's and were out there banging on the car, I tend to think that you are more of a driver than a trailer queen collector so I'd go find the girlfriend, get all you can, then go fix the car and enjoy it too.

At least the G/F is fixable...and you should be out banging on both  :D :D :D

Find a warranty replacement transmission that has no numbers on it.


Are you advocating a fraudulent act?  What if you bought a car and paid big bucks for numbers matching only to find out too late you had been taken in this way?

No, I didn't mean it to sound that way.  I've seen many cars that do not have the numbers matching engine or transmission, but instead have date correct un-stamped 'factory warranty replacement' pieces.  His transmission is not easily fixable, so I was suggesting the next best thing, certainly not anything fraudulent.
