just compeleted 5 speed swap.

[AODLXVert]

The car is a whole different machine... It is keeping up with my buddies 13.9 car (with best of 13.7) DOOR to DOOR until top end of 3rd rolls around... Hes got 3.73s tho, im still stock. Needless to say he flipped me off...after all he is a H/C/I car!! Ok enough boasting... I did it in 2 days with a lift. Pedals took about 2 1/2 hrs out.. 2 hrs in. The donor car had some surface rust on it. I would HIGHLY recommend this swap to anyone wanting more power from their AOD car... My time with AOD was 15.5...now look at her!

Wow, that is a huge inprovement! Why is your friends car only runny high 13s with HCI?

Yeah, edel performers and a cobra intake, we dont know what the cam is since it came with the car.

 

[SVT32VDOHC]

Good job. I converted my 2.3L auto to a 5.0L 5 speed. Of course I swapped motors too...but anyways, I had a HCI AOD car....decent, but my stock 5.0L 5 speed would kill that car....hands down.

 

[Notched90]

Awesome.....I might be doing a t5 to t5 swap soon seeing as my trannies grindin like a bitch between 3rd and forth.

 

[ShortThrow50]

Yeah. your buddies car wasnt done right for high 13's.

 

[cenok is family]

yeah, either your buddy is horrible at driving or there's something horribly wrong with his car if he's only grabbing high 13's with a h/c/i car. i ran a 13.7@99 with nothing but gears and exhaust.

 

[Foxfan88]

my car with a stock engine and an AOD went 16.7, was a TURD, the AOD shifted funny.

i added a set of gears and did the t5 swap and went to 13.90s

over almost a 3 second drop. the car felt TOTALLY different.

 

[fivespeedsteed]

Yeah. your buddies car wasnt done right for high 13's.

I ran 13.7 at 103 with my HCI car with an AOD.
Im swapping to a T5 really soon. I cant stand the AOD anymore.

[PUNISHER RACING]
