You have to buy special mounts, Summit sells them. I'm pretty sure the AOD will not bolt up, I could be wrong though.

it can be done but is by no means a plug-and-play operation...i wouldnt recommend it unless you or someone you know is very good with cars and custom work...

ExplodingGopher (posts in 5.0 talk alot) did a 460 swap in his 91 LX. try contacting him...

You will need new motor mounts, swap oil pan and headers, and no, your AOD will not bolt up.
