AOD install ???'s and valvebody ???'s

I am putting in an AOD from a 89 Mustang, I've got everything in but when I went to connect the shifter linkage notice a slight problem, I bought the linkage arm from NPD but when connected if my shift selector says park the tranny is in first gear, on down the line until I get to 1rst which puts the tranny in park, I was able to use the cable from the mustang to correct this but it is somewhat unsightly is this normal for these trannies to be like this.



Also I am looking at getting either the Lentech Street Terminator valve body or the Strip Terminator valvebody which would you recommend and why, with these valve bodies would I have the same problem as above also this tranny has a 3500 stall
 
A lot of times on the tranny swaps, you have to take the shift arm off of the transmission and put it on upside down in order to get the shift pattern right. I have an AOD sitting here ready to go in a car, and it looks like that is what needs to happen.
