Default AOD to T-5

I've decided that getting a supercharger this summer is too much money so im gonna do a T-5 swap onmy car. When i go to buy one (im getting it used) what should i look for to make sure its in good condition. I know i need the pedal assembly as well, anything else i should get? Is it easy to hook up all the electronics stuff like the sensors and such? I've never taken a tranny off a car but i do have experience so i think i will be able to do it. Will i have enough clearance just using jackstands in my driveway to drop the aod? Thanks guys

It sounds like you plan on heavily modifying the car, so IMO, keep the AOD, you'll just break the T-5.

Might want to go with a Gforce T5 for peace of mind.
