track times????
 
im having my car converted to a 5 speed tremic. i ran 14.75 with the stock aode tranny and before i got the 75mm mass air and the diablosport chip. Any predictions on times that i will run with the chip, maf meter, and the tremic installed i should be somewhere in the 13s but i want to hear your expert opinions. if not then ill have to change my username http://www.mustangworks.com/msgboard/smile.gif

Depends on your original mph and 60'. I say a 14.3.

Dont change your name... Just get the mods to get you there.

i figure that since i started with a 15.6 and my friends bone stock 95 5 speed convertible runs 14.9 that switching from auto to man is good for 7 tenths. the chip is good for a tenth or two and so is the pro m 75mm mass air mater ill be runnin 13.7 to 14.0

TheSloAod 05-12-2001 04:03 PM

why dont you keep the aode in the car? beef it up and put in a stall and kick some 5spd @ss. 5 spds arent any faster than a nice aod or aode, plus they get really up set when a automatic mustang puts it on them

i was going to do excactly that so i got a lentech aode street terminator and a 10" torque converter with a 2800 rpm stall but within two days the valve body which was a custom $500 valve body was screwed up. so i said enough with the auto thing plus i enjoy the control of a 5 speed. did i mention the lentech was a top of the line $2600 tranny.

AOD 1st gear= 2.40
T5 1st gear= 3.35

AOD 2nd gear=1.84
T5 2nd=???? not sure but a lot more than an AOD

That is like saying your 3.73 car is slower than my 2.73 car w/ the exact same mods.....come on brotha....
I had 'em both, T5 and AOD......the only thing i would use an AOD for now is a boat anchor...or stock pile them to sell to people like you every other year.

"come on brotha" you can get a upgrade kit to increase 1st to 2.84 and second to 1.55, i have no problem beating 5 spd cars with similiar or more mods than i have. use your aod as a boat anchor and i'll use mine to beat you in the 1/4

Yup..it's the wide ratio kit from motorsport...$500 and cost about a grand to install. i had it...It still sucked and i had 3.73's and 2200 stall converter.
the car went 14.40's on sportsman pro's.
I kinda doubt you can go 13.40's on the motor
But giving you the benefit of the doubt...5-speed is still quicker.
I go 13.20's on motor.
I'm not trying to take anything away from anyones stang....i had a 90 GT w/ an AOD....went through 3 of them in 5 years..never went quicker than 14.40.
I just find it amusing that so many people try to talk everyone out their decision to do the swap. when in reality they probably never drove a T5..or they would switch too.
And to IBstanged...12.12 is pretty fast.
But you would be running easy 11's on a T5.
I go 12.50's on half the nitrous you do.
Another 75 hp would get in the ballpark of 11.80-11.90 and i don't have a $3000 trans.
People have a lot of one-sided opinions....
I have had both and i can tell you 5-speed rules.

I agree a 5 speed is quicker as you have a lot less hp loss to the rear wheels, and all in all is a lot simpler & cheaper to modify/rebuild. Although I have to admit you can't beat an auto for consistency at the strip.

NOS NOTCH- my friends 5 spd went 13.28 on the stock motor also. i had my tranny rebuilt localy and its been in the car for three years. i dont blame you doubting an aod can run 13.40s with a stock motor not many people can or do believe... you have to see it. a few of my friend with 5 spds actually like my tranny and have thought about going aod (but 5 spds feel so much faster when you slam them)

AJSTANG 05-14-2001 09:18 AM

I say low 14's. It takes a lot to get these heavy convertible's to move more quickly down the track. Improve the exhaust; steeper gears and more traction would also help. Remove any extra weight.

joey50gt 05-14-2001 12:42 PM

so to TheSlowAod are you running 13.4's on slicks? (just wondering) what kind of tranny mods do you have? because my 91gt is an aod and i was just wondering if you were pulling 13.4's with the stock tranny and the stock stall?
thanks for answering my questions ahead of time if you do.

TheSloAod 05-14-2001 01:24 PM

hey joey the 13.423 and 13.429 the car ran was on usa racing dirt track tires. they hook like a drag radial. the 60 ft was only 1.952 and 1.956. the tranny has a hughes 2600 stall in it (i think), shift kit, 1 piece input shaft, oil cooler and some other things, but i dont remember exactly what. a local shop built it for $1,700 and put it in. and where is hurst texas?? pm me and i'll give some advice with your car

NOS_Notch 05-14-2001 06:44 PM

Just to clear things up....I'm not against auto's.
I also agree that an auto is more consistent.
But i would and may choose a c-4 when my heads and stuff go on and i smoke my T5.
I enjoy a 5-speed more...My point is that why did ford gear the AOD so horribly??? and make it sooooo weak????
3 trannies in 5 years??? on a mid-14 car?? that is completely unnaceptable.
There is virtually no performance gap between the Z28's..auto or 6-speed(unless on slicks) and on the streeet i think i'd rather race a 6-speed..they launch too high all the time and spin.
I love mustang's....I hate AOD's
Ok...i'll shut up now ok.....
I will....you don't have to ask me again...
