I am looking for information on the AOD. Are all of the AOD's the same for the years 1980-1992 in all of the cars?? I am going to go to the local junk yard to get a tranmission and parts to rebuild for the conversion, any help.....
Thanks,

Check out baumannengineering.com for the tranny info.
I'm doing the same thing for my 66. If you put in a EFI engine, you might as well go AODE if you can. If you are putting in the AOD behind a carb engine, I believe you don't need any electronics.

The tranny will be behind a 289 with a carb...
I used an AOD from a F150 which was a mistake, the speedometer drive gear on the tailshaft has a large number of turns on it (I think it was 9) making it impossible to get a driven gear that'll calibrate correctly, I have a 21 driven gear and my speedo is still way off. I have a picture of the carb linkage at

The cable camefrom Total Performance in MI as I recall.
I see from the pics you are still running a Holley carb. The fuel leak is quite evident. Time to upgrade to an Edelbrock carb don't you think?
