Hi everyone, I come to you again for some help, i got a big, like REAL BIG trouble with my old F-350, but first, some context:
i recently put a lot of miles on the truck (almost 2k miles driving almost nonstop), all because i moved from i was living, i loaded the truck at full load capacity with my things (arround 8-9k pounds), and well, the truck don't seemed to care too much besides the uphills (i overheated the engine a little bit, not full, but enought to spit a bit of coolant on the engine bay), after that, all the road seemed okay, even across the dessert was good with the shifts and no overheating at all, no flashing on the trans even at 115 degrees with the sun burning my arms and hands on the steering wheel, but after starting the climbing again, i started to notice someting was odd, my transmission suddenly started to climb too slowly, and even with the peddal on the floor, the truck was losing the battle, and then finally can't climb anymore, i tried everything, but the truck even stumbled at parking or neutral flooring it, and killed itself at idle like when you put first and let the clutch almost all the way up, the transmission was ok on fluid, leveled, cooled down a bit, worked a couple miles and again the same, long ago i get a 62 code (TC slip), i ignored then because the engine was too bad an misfired on uphills, and after fixing it i checked again and the code was gone, so i thinked then the code was triggered because of the bad performance of the engine, another thing i noticed then, empty was good, but on uphills the truck got loaded and sounded like grinding, but the shifts were on time and softly upshifted and downshifted, but never thinked about the torque converted was gone.
now my truck can start for a bit, then stumble at full throttle and got a sound like clonking on the transmission, but the transmission works, put reverse, move back, put neutral or parking, nothing happens like it should, put drive and moves forward, but still stumble and dies after letting go the throttle, and sometimes the truck don't even start, i first thought it was for the altitude where i live now (almost 2700 Meters above sea level, before i was at 14 meters above sea level), but now i know it wasn't, the fluid was ok still, a bit brown, but no burned clutch smell, i need to run a KOER scan to see at full detail, but anyways, i know almost a 100% the problem is the TC, so the question is:
what torque converters are compatible with the 460 engine and the E4OD transmission? because where i live now almost all the f-series are smaller engines, like the 302, 351 or similar, not much if any 460 engines here, even worse, almost all of them are carburated still, with cable-controlled transmissions the ones similar to my truck, and the thing i hate the most is i left a used-but-good TC on my old home, so i don't have too many options now
the TC on the 302 or 351 are compatibles with my truck?
thanks in advance, have a nice day!

 

You need a converter from an E4OD with a 460. That's the only one that will fit and have the proper stall speed.
