5.0L/6R80 swaps now a lot easier

[walt460]

I heard last night that both HP Tuners and Lund Racing are claiming that they can now remove PATS from 2011-up Ford PCMs. This, and the fact that HP tuning software can turn "OFF" communications and fault codes of unwanted modules on the CAN bus, means that swapping the 5.0L/6R80 or even a 3.5L EB/6R80 is now a lot easier.

I am sure we will be hearing and seeing a lot more on 6R80 swaps real soon. I do know that several companies are working on stand-alone 6R80 controllers, which are fine for some applications, but for a robust street truck, using the Ford Factory PCM to control both the engine and trans is a sweet answer!

I have most of my parts now from Power By the Hour and just waiting for a piece of harness for my Coyote & 6R80 swap.

As you said Factory PCM to control both the engine and trans. :banana:

I am wondering if there is a 5.0L Supercharger kit that works well with the Power by The Hour P/S kit, not sure if anyone has done this yet.

Any updates? I completed my 6R swap I am now looking in to getting abs lights off the dash
