It seemed to be quite a bit heavier than my C4, but could have been my imagination. Are AOD's a big heavy brick ?

Thanks -

A little late for that question, isn't it? It seemed to me that it was about a 15 lb difference...

I expect it to be easy other than having my drive shaft shortened. I already have all the conversion parts.

15 lbs my butt...AODs are heavy buggers, quite a bit more so than the C4.

Tranny weights suggests more like 40+ pounds more.

Either that extra protein and creatine is helping or AOD are light because this is how I pick them up.Don't know what the big fuzz is about them being heavy???
