My buddy who rebuilds transmissions refuses to even attempt to rebuild ones that have run dry for that long. Too much damage. Sorry for the bad new. Good news is that these transmissions are cheap and easy to come across in the junkyard. Just be careful and look at the fluid color and find one that was in a major collision with lower miles.
Appreciate even the bad news ha.. I need all the info I can get right now. Dont even know how to take a tranny out but I can learn how. I got this far in 2months.. You know if it matters what tranny it is, as far as yr/gears? Because I was roaming in the J yard today and found an 04 CompG SC. It had 135K on it. Not in a major car accident tho.... I have 185K on my 04 GTP Supercharged. Got it around 135K and haven't checked or changed the tranny filter in 5yrs and who knows what the previous owner did.. I just figured out what I really had 3months ago and started nodding because blown gasket and warped cylinder heads.....

Put on CNC ported heads, 130# valve springs, oversized radiator, cai, coil pack and wires, also a 180° tstat and alternator voltage booster, new alternator, front plog, 3" Downpipe and 3.5 pulley......... Need to save my bottom end. Just got started loving these 3800's
