AOD Transmissions
AOD Pros:
- Now the cheapest way into an automatic overdrive for your Ford. It can be built to handle almost anything.
- Lost of choices for mounting in Mustang.
- It can be updated with AODE parts.
AOD Cons:
Quick 4 Stand-Alone Transmission Control AODE, 4R70W, 4R75W-Quick 4 Stand-Alone Transmission Control System For Ford AODE, 4R70W, 4R75W Transmissions. Close cousin to the AOD, the AODE /4R70W is an electronically controlled overdrive, first seen in 1992. This unit has shown remarkable performance on the Hot Rod Power Tour and Drag Week and in several classes of the NMRA and NMCA race series. In Ford AOD Transmissions: Rebuilding and Modifying the AOD, AODE and 4R70W, author George Reid walks you through the process step-by-step, from removing the. The Ford AOD automatic overdrive four-speed transmission, introduced in 1980, was used with most Ford engines of the day. Ford later introduced the AODE, a computer-controlled version of the AOD. The AODE was used from 1992 to 1995, when it was improved with wider gear ratios to become the 4R70W. AODE shall notify the cabinet in writing within ten (10) calendar days of closure.

- TV cable setup can be an issue.
- Done wrong it will lunch the transmission. Mounting to other Ford chassis will be less easy, but many ran the FMX which is a cousin to the AOD.
- Lower numerical gearing than the stock C4 or C6. The car will be a bit more sluggish off the line.
- The thin valve body is more likely to warp.
- Weak input shaft (stock)

AODE Transmissions
AODE Pros:
- Stronger than the original AOD larger overdrive band and overdrive servo.
- Stronger input shaft.
- Electronic controls for easier setup.
- Lock-up converter: You can unlock the converter for acceleration or unlock it for efficiency.
AODE Cons:
- Costs are higher due to electronic controls and better components.
- Lower numeric ratios than your original C4/C6 equals less acceleration if a stock axle is maintained.
