Ok, i searched the archives. I dont want to start an AOD vs. other trans discussion. I just want to know how to get an AOD in my 70 with a narrow tunnel. And if i do eventually get it in there, how do i do that tv cable or w/e its called? I really want to have the overdrive, my car isnt very powerful, it wont break the aod because i dont really get on it too much. I just want the overdrive to help the gas and allow me to run better than 2.79 gears in my mav and not destroy my gas mileage. -Todd
Scott, you will have to enlarge the tunnel if you want the AOD in your car. You can cut or pound but the end result will be a larger tunnel and remade supports. The exhaust will have to be widened to go around the larger bellhousing. PaulS
I think Lokar makes a tv cable. You could also use a cable from a 88-91ish crown vic. It is important that the tv pressure is correct or the tranny wont last long. This place has some good info on AOD's. http://www.baumannengineering.com/index.htm The newer the AOD the better they are. 91 was the last year in the crown vic and 93 was the last year in the mustang. 94-95 mustangs might of had the AOD but I think they were AODE's. They arn't as week as everyone thinks they are.
