Does anyone know how much more drivetrain loss there is with an AOD than with a T5? I'm debating on switching back to the aod for a while... Getting bored of my T5 again. This will be the 8th transmission swap [&o]

LoL yea definetly cheaper! I think the difference is like 6-8 percent? Coundt DEFINETLY be wrong but thats what I THINK.

manual has a 17% of im not mistaken aod has 22%, yea ig ot a better idea just buy my fox, im asking 2,500 but ill negotiate but terms apply then. its aod.

minimally noticeable, i'd say the biggest difference is the ability to hold the gears to 5000rpms in an AOD vs. a 5spdand that makes the car feel slower.

actually it is a noticeable difference. if i had to randomly guess id say maybe 15-20 hp diff maybe more. i dunno.

I would bet money there more loss than 5-6%. I put an AOD in my ranger (5.0L), even with 3.73 gears the thing feels like a slug, where as my stang with the T-5 and a 3.27 gear is WAY faster. Theyre built almost identical except for the exhaust and the truck has 351 heads instead of GT-40's.

Because I have a C4, T5, & 2 aod's here & everything needed to put each of them. So the cost for putting in either will be however much the fluid is. I just feel like working on my car & transmissions swaps are pretty quick & easy to do.

Ty for the info ecstasy.

Btw, the aod & c4 both have shift kits, so shifting rpm isn't a problem. I only swapped back to my 5 speed because i missed it & wanted it back in at the time.
