Ok here's the situation. I'm converting my car to a 302 and I have a 1976 302 that I'm rebuilding. This is where the problem starts I need a transmisson to put behind my motor. Here are my options:

1) A 1984 AOD. Probably close to 180,000 miles on it, so it will need a rebuild. How much does getting a AOD rebuild at a shop cost on average. I would add a stall and shift kit to the trans. BTW the cost of the trans is $50 bucks

2) A 1984 T-5 and all the stuff needed to swap it over for $275 bucks. It has about 150,000 miles on it. I also has a short throw handle. It works now, BUT it will probalby need a rebuild in a while. About how much does it cost on average to rebuild a T-5
