AOD and AODE converters are not interchangable are they? I don't see many AODE converters anywhere.
BEWARE of edge racing!!!!!
they DO NOT stand behind their 100% guarantee.
when i 1st got the converter, the slippage was 16%! andre had it for 5 weeks to fix it. after running it less than a season, it grenaded. andre said it was only the 2nd stator failure in 10 years. i talked to a drag radial racer that went thru 4 edge converters on another site i frequent, and he said his stator broke (he no longer runs edge converters, so that speaks volumes). also his friend broke two stators. do the math. that's alot more than 2 in 10 years!!! once i found this out, i told andre i wanted my money back. 3 1/2 MONTHS LATER, HE REFUSES TO GIVE ME MY MONEY BACK. it was one excuse after another.
since i've had this sig, other people have pm'd me telling me their horror stories.
yeah no ***** paul.I find it funny that a couple of years ago I asked several questions about stalls.... there were only like 3 people that posted anything about the AODE converters ANYONE sold. Everyone else was "switch to a 5-speed" "5-speed conversion" "only pansies that can't drive, drive auto cars".....
Now that I have one and don't need another... EVERYONE posts and we get to multiple pages. What the heck?
Nevermind.... took 2 years to get to a second page. Not much has changed for us poor AODE guys. HAHAHA
i check in once in a while to see whats going on. seems like there has been some bad news around here lately.Hey there you are Eddie... impressive 60ft indeed.
Within a month, I should either be going faster, or the car will be broke in the attempt.
cool. I was having issues with the p/a valvebody, so some time next week im gonna get rid of it and go back to the stocker with the jerry mods done to it. i already modded the stocker, i just have to put it on.I've learned a few more things during this last tranny rebuild. I couldn't figure out why the hell I kept burning up O/D when I rarely use it, and only use it on the highway.
After going through the books one of my new club sponsors (transmission shop) has. Now I know why. When you manual shift our cars it locks in the O/D band as well when changing gears. Letting it shift itself it doesn't. Which explains why it feels a bit different. He's building it up this round to hold the power. Even wants me to continue manual shifting the car.
We're taking my shift kit to the extreme this time. So hopefully I'll get a bit more power to the ground.
Oh, and that's an amazing 60ft on stock suspension and street tires. I think my best is 1.86 on D/R's and hitting the nitrous as soon as the car leaves.
