T56 transmission bench testing (rebuild)

Is there any company in the so-cal area that can do bench testing of my transmission I'm rebuilding? I'm worried about the shim tolerances. I'm using a dial indicator to measure the play and trying to properly shim it, but I'd rather make sure everything is solid before I go through all the effort of reassembling the car's driveline. Thanks!

Also, on the main shaft, I get no in-and-out play anymore after shimming, but I get a slight side-to-side wobble. Is that normal? The dial indicator shows no in-and-out play.

That's not too far. Maybe I'll give them a ring tomorrow. I'm located in Long Beach.

Anyone know anyone else that may be closer to LB?
