I would think that you could modify the old one and make it so it bolts in the new location, either way it has to bolt in somehow. I had been planning to add all new frame rails from the rear cross member forward, so the tranny mount for my car would be alot different, but now that I am keeping the stock floor and rails, I will have to look at it to see how it will mount. I believe there are a few people on the board that have AOD's in there car so you could ask them how they did it.

: : It looks like it will fit with out any modification to the tunnel, but I have not mocked it up yet. The tranny cross member is the same, except for it sits back exactly 2" farther.

: : : : What is the best car to get an AOD out of? I need something to mate to my 289. How much tunnel massaging is necessary to get the tranny in? Really thinking about doing the swap soon.
: Will need to bolt or weld an extension plate to mount the tranny mount??
