Thread: 4 speed to 6 or 8 speed swap (auto)

  1. #1

    Default 4 speed to 6 or 8 speed swap (auto)

    I am not expecting many positive replies to this, but has anyone done this?

    There is an adapter to run the 8 speed but it is very expensive conversion as you need a harness and tcm

    I don't think anybody has run an 8 speed problem-free in any restomod. Even the green Hellcat 71 Challenger that was done has issues going into limp mode at higher speeds.

    After some coffee, I finally get where everyone is going with that!

    But....I would still love some info on the topic!

    From what I've seen, MMX has a stand alone for the 8 speed in the works.
