1988 E4OD
Since I cannot find a PCM anywhere on this 1988 Ford, how is the E4OD controlled. I would like to put this trans behind a 460 and install both in a 1980 F350 that belong to my late father as the truck only has little over 85K and the 351 M is a little under powered for what I use the truck for'
Thanks Keith
Thanks Keith

The 460 bellhousing is only shared to the big blocks which means another 460. And yeah.

What model? What engine? The PCM is behind the driver’s side kick panel. The first year for the E4OD was ‘89. What is the build date and what year does the emissions sticker under the hood say it complies with? Do you have an overdrive cancel switch on the dashboard?

I did not say that the E4OD was behind the 351 M, I have an E4OD and a 460 that I am going to transplant them into my 1980 F350 dually. as of present time the 80 has a 351M with 4 spd and I want to go with 460 and automatic . I need the power as I live in eastern Oregon and when I run east on I-84, I have to climb Cabbage hill up into the Blue mountains. And Cabbage hill is a 7% grade.

351M/400 use the same bellhousing pattern as 429/460.

If it was an E4OD there would be an overdrive cancel push button on the dash to the right of the steering column. This post disagrees

I also have a 1988 F250 4x4 with 7.3 diesel and an E4d0 , it is a special heavy duty truck. when I was doing brakes I had to order rotors and pads for 97 super Duty 4x4. I have all the original paper work for the truck, all I can figure is it was a special order truck. One owner, I am second owner of the truck. I am completely redoing the 88 4x4, it has a Ford Motor company replacement engine. It also has K code with an overdrive transmission..,
