There is a guy here in Amarillo that has one. It doesn't run though. Good luck and let me know if you ever come up here.

The AOD is huge compared to the other auto trans. It is also the heaviest one. The C4 would be the best one, its narrower and about 60 pounds lighter. Thats all the input I have, sorry.

Oh, you hang out with Bart? Never mind ha ha. You guys going to Heat Wave?

I would do some research on building motor mounts. I would imagine that you are going to have to do some mods to the fire wall and the trans tunnel. Are you going to keep heat in the truck?
