What Transmission

Looking for some help we have a pair of E-450 cutaways with Ambulance bodies on them. They are the E-450 with the 6.0 2005 model year. It was my understanding that these chassis had the E40D transmission not the torque shift and that’s why the engines were derated. Can some one clarify this for me?

Thanks in advance

Chris

The only auto ever available with the 6.0L in both the F series and E series is the TorqShift.

Ford hasn't built an E4OD since 1997.

Thanks - maybe I am getting my terminology wrong - did they come with a new transmission for the 6.0 or is it the same one they used on the 7.3?

They use the same trans. The derating comes from lack of an intercooler, and more resrictive exhaust manifolds to clear the engine bay in the van chassis.

The 6.0L vans DO have an intercooler. And they use the same trans as the 6.0L F series trucks. They do not use the same trans as the 7.3L.
