I got a 1990 AOD for my 1979 mustang and I was wondering what is involved in putting the AOD where the C4 used to be?

bc im gettin the AOD for free and the previous owner took out the C4 and it needs a tranny in there so i figure that ill slap in the AOD until i get enough money for the new engine/trans combo.

I don't know about the '79. I was planning to do this on my '67. I'd need a shortened driveshaft because the AOD is longer than the '67 C4. On the classic forum alot of people swap in AODs to get better gas mileage. regular 87 in my area is $2.19
