Thanks Jeff. I wish there was something I could do but if I was to do it, than I'd be another month waiting for the motor. I've been planning for so long and been through so many delays already (newest one being that the bearing were from a '76 351W). I learned my lesson. Good luck this season.

I'm not sure on the differences, so I'm not sure if it could be done. I know my flexplate is a 161-tooth with the 50in-oz balance for the 302. There might be a flexplate out there that wouldn't upset your engine balancing. I'm assuming you went with a 157-tooth flexplate for a small C4 bell housing. I know a Street Bandit racer (one of the top racers at that) that is making the change from a C4 to the Lentech AOD so it can be done. He might be neutral balanced though, I can't say for sure.
Redsn95vert. Check out their website at www.lentechautomatics.com or give them a call at (613)838-5390. I know that Len has been talking about the AODE market, but I'm not sure what they're making at this time.
