My 1994 GT Mustang Aode to T5 Conversion w/PICS!

If you're getting a chip you can have it tuned so the AODE computer will work. The tuner can simply turn off the auto trans functions.

Also gonna buy my baby a 4 bank eliminator while I'm at it as a sort of welcome back gift

Save your money. The $239 or more that you spend on a chip (likely from american muscle) could be put towards much more important things.

FWIW, there are other chips out there that do the same thing, for significantly less money.

Such as??

Might want to review my resume before trying to call me out on something like that.

I googled your username, Corral resume says "BANNED"

Yeah I already have your resume bud, a long history of being a complete prick all over the Mustang forums. You got banned from Corral TWICE for being a little prick to Mr. Eades about the death of his daughter.

Thanks for the insight. By the way, great thread! Thanks for your contribution to tech related info.

I'd like to have the sct chip
Free tunes for life, and I was going to get it anyway to maximize my (few) mods
I'm already discounting what you say, because evidently you are bad juju

Dude you're freakin awesome
Thanks so much for the help

Beware though, I've heard bad things about the BAMA tunes for 94/95 cars. Might want to consult with an actual dyno tuner for help with that. I'm not sure who is available in your neck of the woods but if you post something in general chat about it someone might know who to contact.

There are some tuners who will do mail order tunes for N/A cars and they could easily turn off the auto functions in the computer.

There is nothing wrong with the chip itself... it's the guys at American Muscle that suck.

Such as??

The Moates F3, F8, or Quarterhorse

You'll get a much better result from 64bit Tuning Concepts, or Dirty Dirty Racing

You should tell them that YOU are the proprietor of 64bit Tuning Concepts!

Hmmm alright I'll keep that in mind
What problems do you speak of? O.o

 

[99FiveOh]

Idle, drivability, fan temps, general inability to understand how to tune a 94/95 engine strategy.

Diablo or SCT Chip.

Alright I'll bite, the f8 looks good and costs less....what's the catch

Currently in the process of swapping my AODE for a T5. This thread has helped me tremendously, thanks!!

PS. Sorry for bringing this old thread alive again - didn't realize the last reply was 2014.

 

[fasterthangas]

Sorry for digging up an old thread but this is the one and only detailed conversion thread for SN95 cars.
What did you do about the overdrive switch and light in dash when converting from an AODE to a T5?
Thanks!

Parts List

Parts List

These are the parts I had to get and the prices I paid for them to the best of my memory:
Amounts in ( )'s are amounts I didn't spend but you may spend depending on your situation.

5.0 T5 Tranny and Bellhousing w/fork 200.00

Block Plate new Ford -I modified mine (60.00)

Flywheel new from Advance 70.00

Clutch...slightly used Zoom 40.00

Shifter - Hurst short throw came with trans

T4MO Computer 126.00 shipped

Clutch pedal assy +
Shifter boot/bezel +
Factory clutch cable +
Shifter handle/factory Knob 40.00

Clutch cable retainer clip PN N80813552
Ford 1.20

If your trans doesn't come with VSS/Gear
you can use your AODE VSS and get gear
from Steeda or Ford (15-20$)

Quadrant / Firewall adjuster Steeda 50.00

Pilot bearing 15.00

Misc. bolts/washers/nuts 10.00

3 quarts ATF Trans fluid 9.00

Rear main seal 15.00

Loctite 3.00

RTV Sealant 4.00

My total on everything listed was $610.20. I'm sure I spent at least $50 more in gas running around finding the deals. It took me about a month to gather all the parts. If you look hard enough you can find the deals out there. Definately alot less than spending 1600.00 for a kit from MPS! But some people don't want to do any legwork and just want a box of goodies delivered to their door, and that's ok too.. it's your money!

And I'm sure I spent a few more for misc stuff that pops up when you do something like this.

Old thread hopefully someone knows does the automatic driveshaft work do you need a different slip yolk or a different driveshaft or anything?
