All,
I finished the install of a Lentech reprogramed valve body inside my AOD transmission today. I have been running an AOD (automatic overdrive) in my Mustang GNS for about 2 years. I am a bit of a performance guy and hated the shift sequence of the Ford AOD. Len Bertrand of Lentech automatics hails our of Richmond, Ontario and I have to say is the most knowledgeable guy on the planet when it comes to our Ford AOD automatics!
I hated the shift sequence of the stock Ford AOD. It does not shift like a C4 or C6 in manual mode. When you manually shift from first to second it shifts quickly into third. It made performance shifting of the AOD automatic nearly impossible. Len has perfected a “reprogramed” AOD valve body that allows you to shift from first to third just like a C4 and C6 with a toggle switch to engage or disengage overdrive.
I have to tell you I hated my AOD until today! Now I can use it to its full performance and enjoy the overdrive feature for cruising. The best of all worlds!
Len Bertrand at Lentech is ready with complete AOD transmissions from strip to street level in trim! Or just a valve body conversion for your stock AOD. I could not be happier with the service and technical assistance. Finally, my AOD is all it can be!! Thanks Len! Visit his website and view his 71 Maverick as it hangs the front tires for a 9.13 quarter mile pass!! I love it!!!
