For a while I was looking into swapping it back and doing the rebuilds myself, and just cycling through 2 transmissions. From some researching into the failures it looked like they were at least partly caused by a design flaw that had parts of the trans (IIRC it may have been 3rd gear) sitting too high up, because of this they weren't getting enough fluid. This lead to them running hotter than they should and over time failing.
My plan was to add a good trans cooler and to slightly overfill the trans to help get more, colder fluid up where it was needed. I know Preludes got the worst of it but many auto Hondas from that era had transmissions were were farmed out to GM who bungled the design and likely have their failures caused by similar problems.
