I can't identify this transmission! Please help!

It's in a E 150 van
On it is stamped RF-E9DP-7006-AA

And I found a metal tag on it which reads
PKB BA
024311 A13
F2UP AB

I thought it was a C6, but I am having doubts now. Can anyone help?

That looks like it's a AOD.

How long is the transmission, and what shape is the pan?

If it looks like this:

____
| |
| |
\___/


That's an AOD.

If it looks like this:

____
| |
| _|
|_|

Then that's a C-6,

Thanks so much for responding, right now I am dead in the water,.....

According to your picture it's an AOD,...but would they have put an AOD
tranmission in a 1992 conversion van with a tow package? I am only asking
because I do not know the AOD, and evidently I don't kow the C6 either, but I
was under the imporession that the C6 was one of the larger transmissions.

Thanks for all the info you can give me,.....

Actually, yea, the AOD has been serving in vehicles since 1980, and it
was phased out in 1994 (at least, the TV cable version was!... IIRC,
they just changed it to the AODE (the electronic controlled version,
same trans, same number of gears, electronic valve body, )

The C-6 was dropped in 95(?) or 96, IIRC.... it'd be a LONG trans,
unlike the AOD, which is about the size of a C4.

And yea, it'd probably do alright with the tow package, provided the
cooling was adequate. Obviously, the AOD isn't really meant to be a
racing transmission (however, one can have it rebuilt to handle LOTS
of horsepower, ) but it should do fine in towing applications.

We really appreciate your help, thanks for all the information,....it turns
out that it is an AOD, and the way I identified it was the circle around the
drive in the dash indicates that's it's an AOD,...a little bit more
information if anyone is looking,......if you have an E40D transmission, the
overdrive will be in the end of the shifter, and regular C6 is just regular,
P-R-N-D-D2-D1,......
Thanks again to everyone!

OK, now I know it's an AOD,......I removed the valve body, tore one of the
gaskets, :-(, still cannot see any band or band adjustments. Anyone know
where I can get a diagram or does someone know the location of the bands? :-)
