67 twin turbo dart

It’s sure sounding like that which is why I asked how it shifted. I went through lots of issues getting mine up and running as well. I’ve learned an amazing amount since then. Keep at it and it’ll all be worth it!
Oh I will, I'm to stubborn to give up plus to much money into it lol. I'm wondering if I should rebuild the clutches and get a new valve body, or just a whole new built trans. Anyones best guess on with the clutch bands being loose and valve body not letting fluid let's say to the right places, would you think the clutch packs might still be good and just replace the valve body or just do new clutches and valve body?
