I would stay far, far away from someones opinion who doesn't have a clue.

Well here we go again...sloAOD is gonna bite my head off in a minute.
They are absolutely NOT strong.
Unless your content spending 2K-3K every other year and never go quicker than 14's....keep it.
I went through 3 in 5 years.
One of them had the FMS "wide ratio kit"
2200 TCI converter, Transgo shift kit, synthetic fluid, and some other stuff....in all, it was about a $2700 rebuild. "bulletproof" to mid 11's claims ford...it lasted 8 months in a GT going 14.40's.
Those trannies that are in 8 second cars cost about 6 grand...if that sounds like a good deal, then by all means..go for it.
But you will not see most automatic cars w/ an AOD....they use c-4's
If you keep it...along with all the other stubborn AOD user's(and i was one too...)
You will soon regret it.
Learn your lesson before you waste a ton of money. I wish i did.
