  • 4r70w swap into a carbed foxbody

    Anyone here done this. I've read the stock V6 trans 99-02 works well and can take about 500 ish hp with a few mods and the stock v6 Convertor works pretty wells tall wise. What controller did you use etc. I read so much crap on the net sometimes it's hard to distinguish shit from shinola

    just did one, though im using aftermarket EFI. The only difference in the controller is that the carb style has power and reference wires for the TPS.

    Tuning is stupid easy. I wrote my program in half a beer.

      What was the cost, did you rebuild trans or use an existing good one. I'm not trying to cheap out, just tired of shifting the coupe and most of my play money goes towards the Galaxie.

      Which I will also be doing the same trans for the galaxie just more beefy.

        I *think* i paid somewhere around 600ish for the controler and harness, 175 for an 02 v6 trans that had 134k on it, bought a new shifter cable, dipstick and tube, trans cooler, lines, filter, fluid...

            yes, but it has the wrong tooth count, from what I understand. There's a speedo output wire on the controller that you can use for an electric speedo, if you want to.

              Usshift for ease

              Microsquirt for cost

              I chose microsquirt since I'm running megasquirt and can tie them together (I believe)
