Not trying to argue with you. These are the facts. You've been wrong about the port injection/fuel distribution, and inaccurate about parts pricing. I got the prices I gave from picknpull.com and I'm in Little Rock, AR if you'd like to double check them.

Never mentioned how the locking torque converter works just that it would be better than the setup I have now, which doesn't lock at all. Also never mentioned swapping converters or planetary sets. Actually stated I plan zero trans mods except 3 very specific ones: a pan swap, a temp gauge, and maybe some bearings if I ever do a rebuild.

I said the AOD is weak. That's why it was put in half-ton vans, but not 3/4 or 1 tons. What you have is a much newer, much improved, electronically controlled version that shares just a few AOD-type parts. Apples and watermelons. As much if not more so as C6 vs 4R100.

Go shout BULL at livestock, not me.
