I'm not sure of the exact measurements, but I believe the E4OD is a bit longer than the C4. Do you have room to play with driveshaft lengths with the 4 link conversion?
The AOD is a good transmission. The only draw back to it is the OD-D-L shift pattern. You can pull it to low and hold first gear. The next detent will let it up shift to second, but to hold second you have to pull it back to L. Then if your speed drops it will go back to low gear. Or if you up shift to second and leave the shifter in D, it will not hold second and up shift to drive or 3rd gear.
The TV cable is also a critical adjustment for the AOD, too loose or too tight and the tranny will not last.
