The check ball locations differ slightly for different years.... mid 1987 was the change.

Does your trans have the aux valve body at the rear of the valve body area or not?

so all together theirs 6 check ball right? the valve bodt dont have any??? :confused:

You may have missed my statement :

you may need valve body photo locations ?
Early v-body will have 3 check balls... the separator plate is checked for dual holes at the bath tub area in the v-body.

Witness marks on the separator plate are your friend when chasing down locations for check ball
