New video of me taking the truck out on the highway. Certainly doesnt have the diesel torque but this trans makes up for alot of it. I have to say this trans controller is pretty awesome! I Wonder if it would be adapted to work on the 6r140? would be a pretty awesome swap in a 6.0 truck because of the known dead spot with the 5r and bigger turbo 6.0s.

Nice work. Love it!
On the lead frame, did you try to clean the range selector and give it another go or just buy the replacement? Did you do any of the simple valve body mods when you had it apart? I think Tugger makes a little upgrade kit to fix a minor fluid port issue on the VB. What year f150 did the 6r80 come from again?
I just got my torque converter built for my 4bt/6r75 combo, now on to the engine to trans adapter. I'm guessing my 6r75 will eventually die and ill get it rebuilt to 6r80 specs, but until then I'm going to roll this one. Hoping I lije the 6r as much as you do!

No I didnt try to clean it. I probably should have but would have worried about it in the future. The replacement really wasn't all that much so I just put the new one in.
I didnt do any mods to the trans its all stock. Came out of a 2011 f-150. 145k miles if I remember right.
