Is it a stick shift or auto? Anything is possible, so yes it's conceivable that the torqueshift tranny is behind a 7.3, but that would mean there is a separate computer in the truck to run the transmission programming since the 7.3 PCM can't do it.

If there's no computer added to handle the tranny, then crawl underneath it and I bet the tranny looks just like your 4R100 in your 7.3 (because that's what it is). As for price, if the guy is making up stories about the transmission, don't trust anything else he says.

 

It's a auto. He wasn't their so I didn't get a close look but he said "the tranny is a 5 speed from behind a 6.0" which what makes me question him was the truck has a 5 inch exhaust and cold air intake both signs of it being chipped and he said "no its never been chiped"

 

I've actually met several people face to face claiming they had a Torqueshift from a 6.0L behind their 7.3L's. Not one of them was telling the truth. Most of them knew almost nothing about these trucks, and were claiming to repeat what their trans builder told them.

It can be done, but it takes a special adapter plate and a PCS box. Pretty easy to spot if you're actually looking at the truck.

 

Yeah people like to tell stories lol like my cousin claiming he's got stage 2 injectors in his 6.0 but still has a stock exhaust and head studs which are weak on them lol

 

Bottom line is, if it sounds too good to be true, it likely is. REALLY pays to know yer stuff, as well.. (know what yer lookin at).

 

It may have a 6.0 trans cooler and the guy thinks it is the transmission.

as for the special adapter, I would like to see that.

 

I have a 6.0 converter in mine, way better than the 7.3 converter.

 

myf350: can I get some info about this 6.0 tranny conversion?

 

I know they make an adapter to put a cummins in a superduty but I've never seen an adapter to put a 5R110 bhind a 7.3. Alot of guys do the tranny cooler mod though so I think hayjay is on to something
