hey guys,
I've been doin the aod-e to t-5 swap for a full day and a half now and now im just coming up on all of my problems at once... id love to have a response to work with by tomorrow morning since im just beat now and have to get some sleep. first of all, are the crossmembers and trans mounts for the aod-e and the t-5 the same or different? i cant get it to be far enough forward to mount to the back of my t-5... if they are the same, what's happening?? also, what part of the trans tunnel has to be notched out?? i was told only a little bit, but i need to notch out about 3/4" in the front about 3 inches wide to clear the entire base of the pro 5.0 shifter. i'm also not sure where to fill the t-5, i filled t from a "fill plug" or so im told but as son as the tranny was tilted back a bit, it came pouring, AND I MEAN POURING out the back... i hope these questions will help me finish up the job tomorrow, and i would rather a response for tomorrow AM, but any time tomorrow is better than never, right?? thanks, kyle
