Replace it with a C-4.  Seriously, you will need several HD hard parts and perform several modifications especially to the valve body and lubrication areas. Is this something you plan on tackling yourself? ------------------

Yes, I was planning on doing it myself. The parts for these trannies are expensive though.The C4 that I have is a 68 with 24 spline. If I rebuild it, what would it take to install a stronger input shaft?
