Well, I now have my tranny out of my 95 GT and am thinking about what to do. I was going to do a performance rebuild and put it back in but I have found that the only aftermarket computer that will allow me to use the AODE is Ford's EPEC ($1000 plus a $250 harness.) I would like to just use the SpeedBrain ($600) but it wont control an AODE. Yes an AOD is possible but.... Anyway, This tranny is going behind a 351 or 427 (450 ft-lbs) stroker so a T-5 is out. Now I have been reading about the T-56 swap for $2300 and an thinking about it since it, a manaul harness and a stock computer will be about the same price as the EPEC and the home rebuilt AODE. Cool factor is a plus but doesn't count. Has anyone went this route?

Thanks,

Greg
