An AOD transmission does not use a vaccum line or a kick down linkage to get throttle position input to the transmission. It uses a TV cable. It...
Stephen, I wish you would have posted this a week ago. I had my project car at the frame shop to be checked. It was perfectly straight. Had I...
Nice project. Good Story. Hope you get it all finished. If I recall correctly, these are the people who actually make them. I called them and...
I could not get the '71 to work. I used a '74. They use different mounting styles. You might be able to graft part of a '89+ Mustang pedal to the...
They will be about the same until the AOD goes into OD which I believe is about 45 MPH., depending upon your final drive ratios and some internal...
This is the ratio of the rear end (final drive) when you take into account any effect of the transmission. If your transmission has a top gear...
Yes, you would get better milage but your final drive number would be so high that it would not be very driveable. 2.79 x .69 = 1.92 or 3.00 x .69...
Nick, You can use the original drive shaft. You will need a custom rear mount (cross member). You will need to use a TV cable. Might have to...

Comet, I just got my AC lines made up and chrged with R12. Nice to have it working again. I had to have custom lines made up to work with the...
If you end up coming up to Reno, I'm looking for a vintage block since the moron took the one out of my project car. Micah
I was thinking about using it to support my A/C lines but decided there was no need. Micah [ATTACH]
Details: http://mmb.maverick.to/resources/my-1971-maverick.221/ The dyno we used did not make adjustments for altitude. It just gave what it put...
Not far from what I got, 326. I figure the trany costs about 40, the accessories 10-15 and the rear/tires another 10. In Reno, I lose about 40 to...
Good idea, but I need a '71 and earlier block to avoid EGR. The '89 motor is already in the car. No getting a grinder to it now. I found out about...
Agree. Unless someone had an originality or other requirement, most people would want a roller block. I'm looking for a '70's block because...
Komet, What is the story with the timing cover. I'm looking to find a '70s block for my other project. Not sure if I have to retrofit the TC with...
When we dyno'd my car, we must have done 20-30 runs. Each time tweaking the mixture here and there or playing with the timing. I remember a small...
I think this is one of the best set ups you can use. I have one in my completed Maverick with a 5.0. I just pulled another system out of an '89...
