Finally got to a point in my other projects to get into it, owned it for a couple years. Pulled good in 1st and Reverse. Second was weak. 3rd was nothing. Only ran for under an hour after I put it back together, a few minutes at a time while I played with it, so I'd imaging it was like this when parked.
It has been a while since I took pressure readings, but IIRC, all were good except C3 in 2nd was only like 50#, and C3 in 3rd was near 0.
When I shimmed the valve to hold more pressure I got the C3 to go up a hair, but the gauge bounced wildly.
The PS was supposed to have been gone through just before it was parked 15 years ago. I found a where a mechanic had engraved the hours and date on the C1 disc hub. Under 100 hours ago in 1994.
What I found was a wrecked C3 pack, steel plates stuck on the center so hard I am going to have to cut them off. Sinterred discs that are worn to half thickness. The C3 clutch hub has some color to it(bluish) from being hot.
Any reason not to reuse the hub if the splines are good? Oddly parts aren't nearly as expensive as I was expecting(discs and spacers). The Hytran/filters will be more than the clutches and spacers.
