I have tried to find where one could purchase an engine adapter. I have a bad 3.9 and would like to put in a 5.0ho ford. I know I have a lot of work but have a 5.0 and an AOD. I was just hoping that an adapter for the AOD to rover transfer case. |

Is the AOD out of a 4x4 model ? I heard someone out west was doing that conversion but not sure who it was now... Kyle |

Cooper should be able to make one. what type of output does the hehehe have, spline count, diameter? I know he has done SM420 and NP435 to lt230s so an AOD should not be too much harder. Ron |

Hmmmmm...a 355 Windsor all alum. block mated to an NP435 in front of an lt230. Sounds cool. I'm still contemplating that Cheby engine in front of the ZF auto box. |

Well , if he has a Mustang AOD the tailshaft is all wrong. He will need a new tailshaft and extension housing or a trans out of a 4X4.... Kyle |

It is a AOD out of a mustang. I have talked to Timm and he does not make an adapter for this application. I have been checking all day, and the more I check the more I'm starting to shy away from My great idea. I might be able to get a 4.0(which is also bad) and give to a friend. This friend has put Chevy pistons and Buick crank into 3.9's. I will let eveybody know wath happens. |
