MercuryLs, why the aod gearset?

 

[MercuryLs]

The AODE gear set gives me a longer first gear, which allows my power to come I slower to better hook my power. Then the 1-2 and 2-3 shift drop less RPM as opposed to the 4r70w gear set.

AODE
2.45 -1st
1.45 -2nd
1 -3rd
.67 -4th

4R70w
2.84 -1st
1.55 -2nd
1 -3rd
.7 -4th

makes sense. i'm used to people going the other way in their AODs.

MercuryLS, I was just enjoying some of your videos last week on the tube. That thing definitely scoots.

10s have been accomplished before, so I'm sure you can do it again.

MercuryLs Thanks. Firsts time I've seen your channel. Some very fast cars. Good Luck.
