    Are you running a very early E4OD that can be ran without an ecm? My experiences with them were all in diesels and I thought I remember a late 87 van having a mechanical E4OD but I do not remember. I could see the AOD being a direct bolt in but the E4OD seems like it would be longer. I'm sure floor alterations are a must.

    I currently have an E4OD in an 84 E350, and an AODE in a 65 Mustang. Both are controlled by Baumman.

    In my van, the trans hit the floor. I jacked up the trans until it was raising the vehicle, and when I lowered it, the trans had created it's own clearance. The van has a column shift so a floor mounted shifter was not an issue.

    For my 73 Mach 1, I do not expect length to be an issue.
