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.
