Following up on this one. My car is now shiffing the way it should. I made 2 changes, but i'm not sure if both were required.

1. I reinstalled the old Valve Body plate. I think going to the newer plate requires some kind of reprograming. There is to many differences in my opinion.

2. I bench blead the clutch packs and found the 3 plastic sealing rings I installed seemed to be leaking. I did have some trouble installing them as I don't have the correct tools. The second time around I covered the spline of the hub with packing tape and covered them in assembly lube. They slid on much easier, I then resized with hose clamps/the fourth gear hub assembly.

hopefully this helps someone else.
