Default Mid-Rebuild Need valve body help!

I'm almost done with my first rebuild, only the valve body to go, when I hit a big snag! The plug that holds the spring on the torque converter clutch valve just shot out of my valve body like a bad outta hell, I tried for an hour or so to locate it but I'm feeling kinda hopeless. Does anyone know if they make replacements for these plugs? or if you have dimensions/pics I could machine a new one for myself

Just to clarify I am talking about the valve that is second to the front most on the bottom half of the valve body.

Any help is much appreciated!

Check out wittrans. They should be able to get what you need. Or the dealer....... Of course, they will want an arm and a leg, your firstborn male child, and half your soul for it.....

valve body rebuild kits have them in there, also I just bought a b&m transpak that had one.. An if not try local aamco they will sometimes sell you small parts like that if they have one in the shop ( just went and bought a few parts today cost me $5 and lots of time and searching)
