Damn, I thought 95's switched to the elec controlled trans... or was it
96?
Call me a hack, but wouldn't a 46rh bolt up to a 318?? Might be your
stronger trans without paying an arm and a leg to have a 44rh built up.
But if you were to get a rebuild, I'ld give Dan the fastman a call.
Since he's close to you (in a roundabout way) might be easier on
shipping. Plus he's a nice guy to deal with! :).... :)
