This may be a dumb question...but yet I ask anyways. I am in the process of having a 427w stroker built and am having some issues deciding what to do with the tranny rear-end. I have a very very strong rear and differential so that doesn't need to be touched, however I have 4.10 gears. I did get my stock C4 built with racing clutches etc. a while back; however I now can't go over 80mph comfortably with the RPMs. My question is whether I should just change the rear gears, or should I get a performance AOD transmission? The way I figure is that I am going to have to build my tranny stronger no matter what since the engine I am building is going to be pushing 600hp(hopefully close to it). So the cost I am looking at is either rebuild the tranny+new rear gears, or AOD and keep the 4.10s. I am leaning more toward the AOD, but I don't know if I will still have issues with the rear gears being so small. Any ideas??
Here is the AOD I was considering http://www.ford-aod.com/ (stage 4)
