Ok, so we decided to do a semi-major overhaul since we had the tranny out and ordered the IMS retrofit kit for LN engineering, a new clutch kit, redo the rear main seal (it was seeping oil but not leaking), and replace the valve cover gasket.
Now, I'm still back at my original problem. I brought the tranny to Norman's Performance to Berkeley and they said he wants the tranny disassembled and wants to work from the inside. I'm not sure if disassembling it will be cost effective as I understand it is very labor intensive. Does anyone else have any recommendations on shops that can fix this- preferably local to the Bay Area? I tried Jake Raby and he doesn't do tranny work, and GBox who mentioned that it will not be cost effective shipping a heavy tranny to do a simple weld job.
Attached are a few pics. Initially, we applied jb weld and it stopped the leak for about 1/2 year. Now it is every so lightly leaking again. The jb weld can be scraped off.
