About how much did you pay for the parts for a AOD to 5 spd. swap? I'm thinking of doing this to the beater and was wondering how much it would be. Hopefully I can do it for cheaper than MPS's $1600 kit [Roll Eyes] . Cheap is the main idea here. Also, about how much could I sell the AOD for? Or is better off as a nice boat anchor with 138,000 miles on it?
