Newest auto trans for 460

Howdy. Im wondering what the newest auto overdriver trans there is for the 460 block. My 79 F-150 has a C6/NP205 combo right now, I would like to find an overdrive auto for it. Anyone know if anyone makes an adapter kit for a newer 4spd or maybe even 5spd to the 460 blocks?

The only auto overdrive that will bolt to a 460 is the E4OD.

The E40D needs a computer to control it. The only 5-speed is the manual ZF. Of course these are for Ford pieces that do not require adapters.

Well... Looks like I'm going to have to keep the C6. Are there any overdrive units like a gear splitter for a manual trans out there?

You can run the E4OD without a computer by using the Baumannator TCS shift controller from Baumann Engineering.. it retails for $425

www.becontrols.com

Direct link http://www.becontrols.com/products/products.htm

The Baumannator TCS can be used to retrofit electronic transmissions to earlier vehicles or can be fitted to applications that originally used electronic transmissions. This system will provide complete transmission tunability via a PC or laptop computer. The versatility and features provided by this system expand the capabilities of automatic transmissions to a new level, rendering older, non-electronic transmissions obsolete. Utilizing performance oriented transmission control strategies, the Baumannator TCS provides much better performance and durability than OEM electronics, while allowing excellent drivability.
