Where should I take my 740 with M46 manual transmission to have OD rebuilt in NYC? 700 1986

I think that I am in need of o-rings on the actuating pistons in overdrive of my M46 transmission. Does anyone have a recommendation for a shop to have this work done in or around New York City?

In case you were wondering, the symptoms with the OD are:
1) Works OK for first couple of miles, then won't shift into OD. - (I think that when it warms up, the oil is too thin to build up enough pressure.)
2) I have replaced the ATF and cleaned the filter a number of times.
3) I replaced the OD relay
4) I cleaned the ground at the solenoid
5) The 5th gear light on the dash is on when the OD doesn't engage.
6) When the OD tries to engage, the RMPS can be anywhere from idle to the value for 4th gear - it seems to be slipping.


Thank You,
Steve
