Re: Sprags?

To my knowledge the sprag clutch parts have been pretty much unavailable as NOS for a very long time, and no interchange that I'm aware of - if there is an interchange Ross or possibly Ultramatic Dynamics will know. If your sprags are bluish, probably from overheating due to trans abuse or negligent service or incorrect adjustments. I think your best bet is to buy a used transmission for parts (also for a good torque converter if you're still running with the wave washer) and hope for the best, or perhaps Mike Dulinski will disassemble one for you to get the parts - that's how I got my spare "just in case" set of sprags.

As long as your trans is apart, if your unit still has the wave washer in the converter I STRONGLY advise replacing it - Kanter sells a wave washer eliminator kit based on the 1955 parts.
