hey guys im new here and just had a question, im puttin a 96 5.9 in my 05 f350 as we speak, currently im building the 5.9 and was about to order the adapter plate and computer and flexplate for my ford trans but was wondering, is there a non electronic transmission that would bolt up to my 5.9? Being that I have the adapter and flexplate for a dodge trans already i was thinking of going that route instead, my goal is to be around 600-700hp in the end, thanks alot for any advice!

 

47rh

 

yep the 47 rh stick the money you would put in the adapter late into goodies in a 47rh they can be built so they are as strong as any of them

 

awesome! thanks alot, would i be able to run a exhaust brake with this tranny too?

 

I don't know why not the exhaust brake has no real bearing on the tranny shift it should shift by rpm and mph on the 47rh there is a test port on the pass side rear of the trans where you can hook in a 45-55 psi ac switch this will enable your tranny to lock up od it goes psi= mph so if you are running 55 mph you are putting out 55psi

 

ok well thats good, any idea what i should expect to pay for one that can handle 6 to 700 hp? also, will i be able to use my stock speedo and odometer some how? thanks man

 

spedo on a ford comes off the rear end almost like they knew what we would be doing


or a tranny I ran across this
