I converted the Efi 302 in my truck to a 351 with an edlebrcok 1405 carb. It has an AOD tranny. I'm using the locar kickdown cable kit, which is made for this tranny and carb combo. I had a mechanic install a new jasper tranny in it, and it shifts out of first at over 30 MPH. He said the locar cable was junk, and needed a new one, which I paid for, he installed, and it did not help. Tranny now has a burned band and he says that an AOD tranny will never work with my carb. Bit of a problem you see.
Now I need to know it anyone on here is running an AOD with any aftermarket carb, specifically edlebrock. I remember a post on one of the boards some time back, where someone had an identical setup to mine, but don't remember where it was.
Basically if jasper won't replace the unit (because of improper installation), and the dimwit mechanic won't either, I need to here from someone else, that this setup is possible before I call a lawyer.
