Hi All,
Recently I came into a '92 F250 4x4 that had sucked a valve and was in generally poor condition - long story short, I decided to drop a crate motor into it, slap a carb on top and do away with the air pump and emissions entirely. I have a rebuilt e4od - was wondering if I pitched the CCIV or CCC or whatever is on it and picked up an e4od computer off a junkyard diesel, is that all that would be necessary to run the tranny? Has anyone out there done this?

Do you mean an EEC-IV? Without a sensor array I don't think you'd have all the inputs necessary to run the E4OD, but I may be wrong. At the very least you'd need to rig up some means of sensing throttle position or however they do it on diesels You might want to check out Baumann Engineering's stand alone controller for the E4OD, it's designed to retrofit computer controlled trannies behind carbed engines.
