I had the option to completely remove the AOD and converted to a T-5 manual, with 373 gears, and let me tell ya, I picked up nearly 1 full second in the quarter mile. 410's in an AOD will get you there quicker than 373's but you will be toping out in drive at the 1/4 mile. For me I found that the ford automatic tranys cant give you the seat in your pants thrill that a manual trany can give you.But thats just my $0.02
