Well here are some random shots of me getting my new tranny- I am so excited to run the car again in Feb! My poor hubby had to do it on his birthday last week- it is nice he's an automotive teacher and we can use the shop!!!!! LOL just thought I'd share a few with you- tranny is awesome I can manually shift this AOD and it holds out like crazy!!!!!!! CAN'T wait till race day- better do better than my previous best 8.30!!!! Ready for power adder now!!!!!! ROBIN :p

LOL. The TREMEC stickers are from FUN FORD TRUE STREET class. They require you to put them on the car for sponsoring the class. I have them on my car also, but run a C4. :thumbsup1:

Thanks Bones!
I'm not really a cold weather person, so we haven't been hanging out too much at all lately. But definately this spring and summer we are coming out with you guys. I have a new play toy that I call Da StreetCar, and will be driving all over the place this year! :yes1:
BTW, the pics you guys took from Columbia were good this past weekend. Hate we missed it! Had a church function that day.
Later

I promise we will get together with you guys this spring and summer though!!!!! I 'll let you know how she runs soon- but on the way to work manually shifting you don't wanna mess with this teacher............. ROBIN :p:p

what converter/stall and who built the aod?

Hey Crumbie my tranny was built by silver fox at click click racing- he uses a valve body which is comparable to the Lentech. It actually has a button where I can turn off the OD on the track- I wanted it this way because even though I race the car I drive it all over- My stall is a PTC- before this swap I had the Baumann high rev kit and trans-go shift kit- just didn't hold out like it should- I researched and talked with this guy for several months before deciding on his tranny- I think it is going to be great at the track- I have been very impressed with my AOD car- she ran 8.4's all last season- ROBIN :)

nothing like a well built aod. the converter is the biggy to getting the car off the line. what mods do you have to run 8.4's. my best with the stock motor n/a was 8.15-12.88.

Hey I remember talking to you at Mustang Week- a few years back my hubby's car looks a lot like yours- My coupe has E cam, GT 40 P heads, Harland Sharp Rocker arms, Trick flow upper and lower, I have Bassanni x pipe, and Imco mufflers. It has full interior nothing lightened up in any way- don't have any suspension yet- that is next on my list- tranny is doing really good- so I want to run it see what my time is- then start suspension work- I love the fact I drive the car 40 miles each day and she still holds her own on the track......... Don't ya love those lil AOD'S!!!!!!!:p:p ROBIN

You lucky dog. Do you know how many tranny's I have had to installed on the ground. Between my six or seven times and 15 or 20 of freinds trannys. Too many. Congrats . Good luck in Jackson.
