what size convertor is used on the aod? if its 11" or smaller then most likely you need a 157 tooth. I dont have an aod but I beleive on the 85 the aod is the same bellhousing size as a c4 or t5 soa 157 would be what you want. the 164 tooth is common on C6 applications and ones with bigger convertors.

You need to find out the converter bolt hole size, 11 7/16, or 10 1/2. I found B&M part numbers for each and if it's the 11 7/16, you need part number 40232. It's a 164 tooth. If it's the 10 1/2, you need 50242. It's SFI approved and is 157 tooth. Both are 28 oz balance.
