hey tony
i've had an aod in my cobra since day one. my reason for using the aod was at the time three operations on my left knee-one since- and i didn't want to worry about trying to shift. it took me three years to sort out all of the problems and get the tranny to work properly. the aod is quite a bit larger than your c-6, although a friend told me that they make a smaller version now. the lock up verses non lock up would depend on what you plan to do with the car. non lock up is easier driveability. the cross member would have to change. you would use a cable to work the tv lever. as for the shifter, i don't think you shoud have any problem hooking it up. i'm using a b-m ratchet type shifter. there are several companies that make aod's. stay away from the electric models. you can have it built to your specs. i bought a used one and had it built to my specs locally by a friend that builds race trannys. to make sure you don't have problems and burn up the tranny you need to have the proper pressure from the tv cable. if you do decide to go this route i'll be happy to offer any help you need. by the way, i have 4:10 gears and can cruise at around 2400 rpm!
