It depends on the vehicle it came from. Generally, the latest model year vehicles (ie. '87 to '93 Mustangs, '90 to '91 C.V., G.M. & T.C.) are the most desirable ones. Bear in mind, if it comes from a 'police interceptor' C.V., there is no manual first gear selection on those particular models. I believe those transmissions were famous for burning out the overdrive bands and direct clutches. The other weak spot on those transmissions, is the hollow input shaft. If you are going to build one up to withstand 330 HP, you would be better advised to try to pirate parts from an AOD-E or 4R70W setup. I believe there are a lot of internal parts that will interchange between the two, if you do your homework. Hope this helps. Good luck.
