'94 4L60E finally giving up the ghost ...

The original stock tranny in the Blue '94 Z28 has finally given up. For a few years, it's been rev'ing as if a missed shift occurred if you were at WOT during the expected 3-4 shift. Now it won't shift out of 2nd. What did you guys opt to do? From a brief research here's what I know...

'94 A4's are the first yr for the 4L60E in the Fbody (93 had a 700R4) and the '95+ got an extra solenoid on their 4L60E. So it appears you can put a '94 - '97 LT1 4L60E in a '94 but you can't/shouldn't put a '94 4L60E in a '95-'97 LT1 because of the solenoid.
I can buy a complete 4L60E outright (no core) from Summit for anywhere from $1,300 - $1,700 depending upon manufacturer/rebuilder(Hughes, TCI, B&M, etc).
I can buy a Hughes 4L60E rebuild kit with HP parts for $390 but from what I've been told, the insides of a 4L60E are not for those with ADD

I've called a local Fbody Boneyard and left a message, trying to see if he has a recent 4L60E and the cost. That brings up a question. Other than the Torque converter, are the LT1 and LS1 4L60E's incompatible?

Have any of you had your 4L60E rebuilt to 'standard', ie: not HP? If so, what kind of cost and time turnaround did you experience?
Thanks!
