aod valve body question
alright guys, i dont know much about transmissions here so i might look like an idoit but i just put new motor in my 86 f250, 351w, and converted it to 93 mustang sequential fire, mass air fuel injection, the next project is gonna be rebuilding an aod trans for it. i dont have the cash for the wide ratio gear set but i heard all the aode's have that. is there any way of taking an aode and putting an aod valve body in it, or switching the gearsets?

.BE CAREFUL WITH THE TORQUE CONVERTER TO FLYWHEEL SPACING WHEN PUTTING AOD BEHIND 351W MOTOR. THERE IS A 1/4" DIFFERENCE FROM A C-6 TO AOD AND WILL WIPEOUT A THRUST BEARING AND TRANNY BEARINGS IF NOT USING A SPACER. I HAD TO SHORTEN UP THE CONVERTER AS SHORT AS POSSIBLE AND HAND SELECT FLYWHEEL TO GET 1/16" CLEARANCE. WHEN I PUT IN THE STROKER, I MADE AN ALUMINUM .125 THICK SPACER THAT GAVE ME A GOOD .125 CLEARANCE.
IF YOU NEED MORE INFO, GIVE ME A PM.
