Default AOD Breakin Period?

Quick Question. I baught a 93 GT a few days ago and the guy had the transmission rebuilt w/ a new torque converter less than 200 miles ago. Is there any kind of breakin period for the transmission or can I just drive it anyway I want. Thanks alot.

Dan

dude honestly u dont think the guy who had it before had fun with it?

there is no break in period like gears or a new engine

its an AOD its meant to be beaten to death. go out there and 1-d-1 shuffle shift that b1tch and if it breaks u know it wasnt rebuilt...

mine wasnt rebuilt and holds up to the 1-d-1 but it slips into 3rd when i do it so i know its not rebuilt. all stock 150k miles and i beat the crap out of it lol

OK well that confirms it a little bit. I had my transmission rebuilt in my 88 also but I do not remember him telling me anything about being easy on it. He just told me to drive it. SOOOOO I guess Im ok. Thanks alot.
