I have a 55 Tbird (with Ford O Matic) and I am considering installing an AOD. I want lower RPM's on the highway.   Would like to hear from anyone that has done this conversion

I've had one in my 56 Victoria for over 10 years. The adapter was a bit expensive but worked very well. I got it from Bendtsen's. Do a search, they are all about the same except for price.
I have a 3:70 or so rear end with a posi from Detroit gear. Rare I know. I've driven halfway across the country multiple times and the supercharged engine is very happy around 70mph and I saw 17.9 Mpg. I often go to the drag strip and love the performance there although learning to manually shift the AOD is a thing to learn. Best run was a 14.2 at 99mph. You can get all sorts of performance addons to make the AODhttp://forums.y-blocksforever.com/uploads/images/591039f7-2b16-4bd9-ac4e-3c36.jpg even better. Even if the trans failed I'd just look for another one.

Y's guys rule!
Looking for McCullouch VS57 brackets and parts. Also looking for 28 Chrysler series 72 parts. And early Hemi parts.
