I got some U Tube videos ear marked I can post some links. They for 4L60E/700R's.
Biggest issue is just getting the valve body check balls in right.
Need a couple special tools.

Hiram Gutierrez on U Tube. His videos are tutorial. He disassembles tells you what each peice should look like. Problems they will cause if this or that happens. He is easy to understand.

I have done front pumps replaced bushings. They are not harder than anything else is. Few bushings, a planetary, bands, rest of is is basically motorcycle type clutches.

Just watch a video or two become familiar with the parts. Decide from there if you want to.

Thanks for the tip.
I have heard that the HPbooks on the th350 is the way to go.

Decided to let the local HP trany guy do the 350 for me.
Red eagle clutches and bands...new HD metals...shift kit.
Case saver upgrade and shift command.
Also adding an ATI steel drum with 36 element sprag.
All that for around 1200 bucks.
Im told it will easily handle 700 hp.
