Hey all, first post.
I live in the United Kingdom and have just bought a 1988 5.0 HO engine. No transmission and i am wondering what transmissions fit. Here in the uk AOD and and the gearboxes that came after are quite rare and are hard to find. So what else fits? Does the C3 fit? could it take the power? In europe The C3 gearbox progressed in to the A4LD. That is much more common. Would like to get an auto. Thanks for any help ypu can give.

Sounds like your on the right track........dont know how good a c-3 is......most the c-series trannys fit/ T-5s do,TKO 500/600...........if you need more help, do a search yol surely find what you need..........

I personally think you should just buck up and pay the international shipping charges on a built AOD from here in the states

t-5... he wants an autou may be ok buying a used one from the states and getting it shipped could probably get one for $200 plus shipping.. hopefully shipping doesn't cost more

Its not the cost of the transmission, cause the exchange rate is so good. But the uk goverment will put an extra 20/25% of the total price for customs and tax!!! GGGRRRRRRR

Yeah T-5 i know its not an auto, i have one, i was just mentioning what tranny will bolt up like he asked, then he mentioned at the end he "would like and auto", maybe that alos means hes not gonna get one for sure............
