Well the 10r80 wasn't used with the base V6 NA engine so thats out. There is no MAF on a Ecoboost engine. The PCM will not work without the full canbus, this issue is even present in the Ford 10r80 control pack for the 5.0 which costs 2k and doesn't work right. Your not going to be doing much because you don't have the base requirements to fulfill the PCM requirements. Unless you can find a way to get 4 channel speed sensor input, electric throttle body feedback and CPS I don't see the trans even trying to engage.

Body Swap
If you actually want it to start and drive, the short answer is yes. Most have done the swap by using the F150 firewall, floorpan and dash grafted into the older cab. You need to use teh dash because of CAN bus. Everything sits on the newer chassis with all sensors working. CAN bus can be an evil witch and it wants to see every input that it is supposed to see. That includes airbags and PATS. there are a few videos on YouTube of a guy that has done the swap on his Slickside F100's

I will be boosting the 300, I'm waiting on my megasquirt 3 as I'm going with coil on plug, as for transmission control, I would record what our new 2020 ranger does shifting for each gear and just kinda see if I can write an arduino code for it to shift for me based on tps and speed nothing else
