Oh I did get the 4R70 swap done. I never made it to the track though. Did this on the test drive after new trans was in so I gave up. I have a fully built 4R70 trans with a 2600 stall billet converter sitting here with less than 25 miles on it. Stand alone trans controller to go with...

It's about time somebody takes that spot!

No I'm using the Baumann controller with normal automatic operation. I went with a B&M Hammer shifter and mounted it where the cup holders used to be. I also made a custom fiberglass part where the shifter mounts in the console.

I did the 4R70 swap and kept the AWD. You have to use an earlier 4404 transfer case though. Of coarse you have to get a 4R70 with the AWD/4WD tail on it. The stock driveshafts fit and I only needed to make a plate with some holes drilled to get the trans mount bolted in. There is a floor brace...

I know, but it's the only video I had around. I'll get another video after I get the new transmission in it. Too cold and too much snow right now where I live.

Nothing much here. Just a small burnout the one time I had the front driveshaft out.

Good to hear you will be working on another build. I have been kinda absent on here for awhile too. Mine has been broke since June so I didn't have any reason to post. Couldn't afford to fix it on unemployment.

I can get pics of whatever you want. Just let me know what you need. I'm away from home this weekend at an all Ford show, but next week I could help. After that you will have to wait a couple more weeks.

It was running for a couple weeks, but I destroyed something in the transmission again. I lost 3rd gear this time. I drove it out to OH and had dirty dog rebuild it again last week. It looks like this trans is never going to hold up. Trying to find an alternative to the 5r55 that I can also...

For what you want a 60-1, 62-1, T61 would be plenty. A 255 lph fuel pump and larger injectors would be a good idea too.

It's been running for about a week now. Here are some more pics.

The line is Fragola performance and yes it is push lock style hose. http://www.fragolaperformancesystems.com/9pushliteracehose/pushliteracehose.html

Some more progress. I should be able to get the fuel rails and injectors in tomorrow.

Trying for an 11 something. I'm converting to return style. The blue ones are just -6 AN bulkhead fittings. The brass ones are -6 AN to barb fitting. The rest of the system will be all pushlock fittings.

Got most of the parts for the the fuel setup.

Had to have it towed last week. Seems like the fuel pump decided to stop working. I have power into and out of the inertia switch, so everything is good up to that point. Of coarse I had just filled the tank the morning this happened! I'll eventually get the tank emptied and dropped when it...

The only thing removed is the 3rd row seat. It was 4860# with me in it the last time I had it on a scale. The trans was built by Dirty Dog Performance.

I had a feeling the trans was slipping bad before. The new one shifts now when it's supposed to. The extra boost was part of it too. I did manage a 12.59 with 15 psi though. I will try to get everything dialed in with the tune over the winter. I also have to get a catch can for the trans...

11s might be the next goal.

I see you have quite the boost addiction with all of your cars.

New best for the turbo Mounty. 1.74 60' 7.935 1/8 88.28 mph 1/8 12.433 1/4 109.2 mph This was with 17-18 psi of boost. I know I can shave some more time off that. I was having problems building boost on the launch. That was run in full street trim just as I drove it there. A...

Here is one that's not too expensive. http://www.dirtydogperformance.com/converters/ford/5r55-n/s/w-/5r55n/prod_19.html

The noise may be coming from the torque converter. I'm guessing Ford didn't replace the converter when they changed the transmission.

Thats should get you a very low 12 in the 1/4 mile. Nicely done! Any pictures of the setup? Looks like I'm going to have to get a bigger turbo for mine now.
