In the last thread I posted I said I was needing to replace the transmission. The going practice around here seems to be a T5 swap. But what about other transmissions? It seems that the C4 transmission is good for handling the power of the 2.3, but the lack of an overdrive makes it (according to some) less streetable. As a counterpoint to that, what about the AOD from a 5.0? They are designed to handle the power output of a 5 liter V8, and I'm sure people mod their 5.0s without ditching the AOD. There is also to "other" factor. What other transmissions are out there that both do a good job at handling power but are also on the affordable end of the spectrum.
So its pretty much like the title says, what are some advantages/disadvantages, strengths/weaknesses to all of the above, and a step further, as compared to each other?
Have at it, ye sages of the realm.
