Does anybody know if the AOD's came with different ratios for first through third gear by application? I know there's an ID tag on the tailshaft housing that might give some info,but I don't know of a decoding chart. I'm just wondering,since mine originally came from an '86 Cougar which was probably geared more for MPG than performance.
