Where to get transmission parts?

So I bought a 1996 SVX with a toasted tranny. It would go into forward and reverse as well as drive when the fluid was cold, but when the trans fluid got warm, I would lose everything.
I took apart the tranny and found the high clutch frictions were worn down, the reverse clutch frictions were worn down, and the brake band was all burned, causing some wear on the outside of the high clutch hub underneath it. I'll try to get some pictures up tomorrow.
So long story short, I need to reseal everything and replace some frictions. Where is the best place that you guys know of to get parts that will work well but wont break the bank?
Thanks,
Paul

Levelten sell a rebuild kit. (http://www.levelten.com)

Essentially its a TransTec kit (http://www.transtec.com), but they swap the TransTec clutches for Raybestos Blue ones (http://www.raybestosproducts.com).

I see you live in wisconsin, I live in madison myself. You oughta head out to subaru heaven, there's a specific junked SVX he has there that I think still has a tranny in it. I was there about a month ago and all that was taken was the front bumper, and the MAF (maf was me lol)

PM me if you decide to head this way, I need to swing by there and would like to meet an SVX guy...

That and my roommate is a subaru master mechanic. We pulled the motor out of his RX, popped it in a GL, and drove it away, in the span of 3 hours lol

Yeah, I am thinking that I might try to get to Subaru Heaven a week from today. I'll let you know if I go down. Thanks for the replies

I got all my parts from transstar industries. I got a catalog and ordered out of there. Then got a shift kit from drivetrain.com.
