Maybe I'm behind the times, but I thought the 6R140 was the issue with swapping these.
It's probably my favorite Superduty body style, but the transmission interface and tuning was what stopped me from looking for one. Has someone made it work? My Ford buddies claim the 6R140 is one tough auto, but nice if it was possible.
How would you utilize the high and low temp cooling circuits? Out of curiosityI'd be tempted to do a 11-16 swap. As far as I know the holdups will be electrical.

So, what's the actual issue(s) with the 6.7 PowerStroke?
I keep getting offered them as cores, but no info as to what's killing them?
Mark.
It's not a need to question. I want to know, since the structure exists, how would you utilize it if you were so inclined.Why would you need to? I think the idea of the swap is to keep things simple.
If I was going todo one it would be a 6.7 cummins with a 6r140 behind it.
Now the common sense side of me has to wonder why take a good motor(ford 6.7) and put in another good motor(6.7 cummins) all that work for very little gain. When you look at swapping in cummins in a 2010 and later ford it makes sense but there is nothing wrong with the 6.7 ford motors.
I'm sure at some point I will end up doing one just so I can build parts to sell as these trucks are almost 10yrs and getting pretty cheap, and of course you will have the guys that will want to swap in the noisy 12v into them.
I love the idea of a mild 6.7 VE pumped/ 47re firepunk built excursion with an 11-16 front end. I would also spend the coin for steering Improvements. Probably run a 285 ish tire and no lift so my wife can still climb in it
(other than it being a 350 and riding like a lumber wagon)
