Sportomatic Torque Converter

Has anybody had problems with the sportomatic torque converter oil seal surface and / or brass support bush and solved them without having to buy a new converter?

The sealing surface on my torque converter is grooved from years of wear. I was thinking of using a speedi sleeve or similar. Has anybody had success with these?

The brass support bush is another matter though as there are no individual spare parts available for the torque converter from Porsche. Fichtel and sachs are the OEM but I don't know whether I can get this part from them. Any ideas?

I've attached a photo of the torque converter.

Norb, ring me... I have one sitting here, needs the ring gear re-welded, but it has been upgraded to a higher stall spec (good thing).

OLD901 hasn't been on since 2013. Fishcop looks like he is still active.
I'm somewhat in the same boat - have a 77 sportomatic and will be rebuilding it, so probably will need some tlc!
I sent a PM to fishcop
