Almost every rear wheel drive car with a v8 from 85 up to 92. Common in Trucks from about 88 up.

I got mine from a '89 stang.

And none of them bolt up to an FE unless you use an adapter. And they are not cheap.

..and cheap is relative. A donor AOD will likely need to be rebuilt sooner rather than later to handle an FE so add that to a up front or future cost.

I recall an FE-spec, rebuilt AOD already runs around $3,000 from Performance Automatic. That's nearly the price of a new TKO and only half the fun of rowing your own gears.
