according to ford, they are good for automatic cars also. I had one in my AOD, and I wouldnt recommend it. I wouldnt put much weight on the recommendations ford puts in thier catalog, if thats what your referring to.

The e-cam comes on strong at 3000 rpm. AOD cars need something that comes on strong down lower in the rpm range to get out of the hole, stall speed converter or not.

But hey, its better than your stock cam, and the price is right, so I dont want to say you shouldnt do it, Im just saying there are better cams out there for your application.

Also, there is the surging idle concerns with this cam, although you might not have any problems with that. some cars do, some cars dont. One of the great mysterys of the e-cam.
there are many theorys to why this happens, and many fixes, but nothing worked for me, until I swapped the cam to a wider lsa version.
