The clutch pack according to the guide should have a wavy plate and a selective plate. The burnt out clutch pack I pulled out didn't have either of these. I'm wondering if I have earlier parts in this tranny or something was swapped out at some time.?  I bought this tranny used,so I don't know the history on it.
Thanks,

GM used multiple l-r piston , steel , friction, wavey , thick steel plate stack ups in the trans.
Early 700 were, piston with 5 x5 steels and frictions. No waves , or thick bottom plate with wavey
Set the piston in case NO seals, stack up steels and frictions , set center support on top. Check for clearance... .050 to .070 will function.
Install snap ring if you wish and pry the clutch pack apart with a scribe for a more accurate measure of clearance.
Some times there is additional gap above the snap ring which will open up the clearance a bit.
