When do you think you will have a adapter plate that will make the 460 to a zf6?
@@ChrisLehmann-ln8ic give us a call 763-767-4480 we have some of this project mapped out. We might be able to set you up!
@@speedgems3978 sounds good thanks
do you have an adaptor to upgrade the 1951 Cadillac with a 331 cid engine to newer automatic GM transmission
Man, one of these behind my 390 63.5 Galaxie 500 XL would be sick!!!
So, how does the transmission crossmember mount work? I am assuming we’re not lucky enough for it to bolt straight up to the C6 crossmember. I’m working on a 1978 Grand Marquis, and no one makes performance parts for mixing and matching all the cool upgrade parts. I’m assuming I’m going to have to find someone who can make a custom crossmember?
Don't use this kit, they break flexplates non stop
Sorry to hear this! Please know that we do not supply the flexplate with this kit, it should be unaffected by the kit itself. How is it breaking? Make sure the torque specs follow fords guidelines. Make sure you give us a call with any struggles!
Its not often you can so clearly see where your money is going. This is a value.
We want to be transparent to our customers and help them as much as we can! Thanks for the comment!
How’s the manual adapter coming?! I would love to put an mt-82 manual on my 460, I understand the flywheel difficulties w the clutch tho.. good luck!
We haven't made a formal announcement, but we do have it made already for any testers willing to go through with it. If you have an interest give us a call and we can let fill you in with the details! 763-767-4480
I thought the twin six was 2 blocks bolted together? Does anyone know if they did make ones bolted together or where they all one piece blocks? Very cool by the way I really like your hemi with a turbo it’s so cool.
Thanks for the comment! With the way engineers were in the past, it very well could be both! As far as research goes, the bolted together variant was a prototype than only a few were made. There was another one piece block that was also called the twin-6 but couldn't find anything further. We're always learning more about the 100+ year history of the automotive world!
@@speedgems3978 thanks yea they are really interesting engines I would love to find one someday and also the ford gaa engine is also a bucket list engine I’ve always wondered what kind of power one would make with higher compression and a more aggressive cam.
Does the 6r80 come in 4x4 and what would you need computer wise to run some Of these transmissions ?
There are some 6R80s that come from the F150 for example that have a transfer case, we recommend reaching out to Advance Adapters for any 4x4 or transfer case application. As far as the stand alone controller, we partner with US Shift for the stand alone controller, customers often tell us its a plug and play situation along with the initial set up. Give us a call and we can help you figure out what transmission to get specifically, (763) 767-4480
speed gems never did make this package any other ideas
We've ran into some last minute design changes, it will be coming this summer.
Where are u guys located what state any good phone number
We're in Waunakee, WI. Check us out online at www.transmissionadapters.com or call us at 763-767-4480
Will this work with a 4l80e that has the The extra hole at the 12 o clock position even if you dont use the bolt hole?
Yes, the bolt pattern is the same with the exception of the top hole. We adapt it to standard GM/Chevy pattern that was the same from the Powerglides up to even the 4L80s, with and without the 12 o'clock hole that is.
So badass, I want one!
Stay tuned with our socials to check on our progress. Its going through a final design revision to reduce cost for the consumer and reduce waste.
is this adapter available?
We're doing one last design revision to cut down cost for the consumer and reduce waste. Stay tuned and check out our socials for an official release day!
@@speedgems3978also interested!
Hi mate, now you’ve got me thinking, I’ve gone through several C6’s behind the 429 in a ‘71 LTD 2 door plus the 4:11’s get pretty tiring on the highway. I know nothing about late model gearboxes and am wondering how the C6 compares strength wise and also I’m currently using a 3000 rpm stall converter so what do I do there?
If your transmissions are burning through quicker than getting you from 0-60, go to a trusted transmission rebuilder and ask for their opinion on what transmission to use. Their recommendation could be you using the C6 still but with different internals. Especially if you got a big block engine, even unmodified, it can output a decent amount of HP/Torque.
@@speedgems3978 thanks mate, they’re not so much burning through as blowing up, the guy I use is good but it’s the fifty plus year old parts that are letting the team down so I either spend up big on aftermarket internals or go for a later trans that has the benefit of an overdrive. I’ve just moved from the city to the bush so I may even change to a six speed manual. Thanks for your suggestions.
any manual transmissions that would bolt up to this kit
I have a 55 Cadillac and I’m thinking of this
ZF does not have a deep first gear. NO GOOD>
Outstanding company. High quality parts. Iv used them.
Thanks for the kind words Ed!
Outstanding company. High quality parts.
Good work Bob that's all you my bro
So a person needs a adaptor and a smaller clutch. I have a 75 with a fe 390 that I heard folks swapping these zf5 speeds. Thanks for informing us that a diesel type won't work.
What all do you need to get the trans to work right I want to put this in my 94 f150 with a 460
NEATO. CHEERS from AUSTRALIA.
Hey Elvis!! Cheers from the only Waunakee in the world!! :)
make a new trans case that fits the engine
Do that kit work with a ford 360 fe?
Whatever you do, don’t let us hear that beast.
No kidding, it's an amazing build and Bob put a lot of effort into it to not let it roar in this video!
Mt82?
We do have a kit for the MT82, Kit# FO2601 would fit and comes with a flywheel and starter. Give us a call if you are interested or have any more questions!
ford 460, should the flexplate weight be facing the 12 o'clock position ? or be facing 180 degs the other way in the 6 o'clock position? in relation to the hatchet weight in the front. please help me, thanks
I need this for my 59 Edsel.
I'm late, I know, but gosh this is just wonderful, thanks.
Thanks! This is just the collection from Bob, our shop has around 50 motors ranging from the Ford Small Block to the Buick Nailhead and Kaiser-Willys. Check out our Facebook page to see a glimpse!
Do you have 401 Nailhead to Chevy trans videos
We don't have a video available, but our instructions are straight forward and our team would be happy to help with any install questions you might have. Give us a call :)
What is the point of the torque converter adapter? Is it for using a non 6r80 torque converter?
Excellent question! It's to compensate the gap between the flexplate and the torque converter itself. Without it, the flexplate won't reach the torque converter and not move at all.
Is there a compatible manual transmission that could be mounted on a 460 BBF?
We currently do not have a kit for a manual transmission, we do have a kit to go to the Ford AOD automatic, but not to a manual unfortunately.
Can you please tell me about your coolant recovery tank setup? Also your hydraboost setup?
Cool adapter setup
Looks like a great kit. Looks like you would have to pull the trans to change the starter, is that the case ?
Great video, I have a 41 Ford Tudor Deluxe and was looking at individual runtz like devices. This 2-6 volt batteries is way better, when you factor in the cost of these voltage reducing devices. I once had a 77 T Bird that I installed a GM alternator. I still have a Optima battery, 12 volt that is at least 13 years old, use in on lawn tractor.
I want to put a T5 behind my 66 galaxie 500 with 352 FE...
Check with QuickTime for bellhousings and call us if you need an transmission adapter plate.
Thank you. It obviously is very simple and helpful by show us it is no big deal. I did not catch if this could work in a truck, 1967-1972 ford, 2wd and 4wd. If you you might know where to buy transfer case supports or change to a married transfer case to the tran. Thanks.
Check out Advance Adapters for any 4wd/transfer case needs, they'll help you out!
This is a really slick adapter plate/setup. Very nicely done!
What gear do you recommend for the rear when you go to a 6 speed?
What did you guys wind up doing about the flywheel? I've got the same engine and mating it to an audi 01e. Still brainstorming how to get those two together haha.
This is awesome! As a owner of a 93 f250, with the 460, i have been wanting to find a way to mate a better trans to it. I will be contacting you guy's for sure. Cant wait till you guys do one for the 10r80. I want a 10 speed for my 460.
Thanks! We are waiting for the stand alone controller for the 10R80 to be released to offer it on our site, hopefully it'll be released soon! :)
Further research reviles that a Manual was not available behind a 5.4.... Are you guy based in Canada?
If you manufacture the 11" Clutch. why are they hard to find?
Just curious if you have any knowledge to pass along to convert the rear end to a normal driveshaft to be used with this. Currently working to bring a 51 special back to the street.
I Wonder How much Torque a 2014 Mustang GT 6R80 can Take without going 4R200..? It's going behind a 460/520 on pump gas with around 700hp. Street Strip Build.. 373 geared Ford Torino. Really wanting this Conversion 😍
As I understand all of the Mercedes OM*xx have the same bellhousing so would this kit work with a OM617?
