Thanks for the feedback! The reason I don’t do a welded nut, and the heart shaped design is so that they are reversible so they can be used with B&M/TCI shifters & PPP shifters. Welding on a nut would mean there would be 2 different designs for the different style shifters and wouldn’t allow any adjustment for cable orientation.

The intro about the 7.3 was best!!!🤣🤣 Great video as always Josh👍💪

I like how you have all of your trucks setup similar for parts interchangeability. Great plan for competition and for stocking spare parts.

Just as I was thinking of this for my truck… wayyy back since your Utah videos… and now you drop a solid video on this 👍🏼 Sweet content man! Do your thing and move at your pace.

Awesome video content as always. Don't worry about people complaining about not seeing every little thing you do. Maybe they should come hold the camera for you. You put out way more useful information then any other Chanel. Greg A is fun to watch but for real information I come to you and you always provide a good time.

I'm guessing I am a decade older but don't ever stop telling it like you see it. I really love your content and value your opinion. I have a 2005 Ram 3500 single tire quad cab long box 'Clifford the big Red Dodge' (278k miles) with PDD valve springs and pushrods, SXE472 compound kit, air dog, Fleece 10mm stroker CP3, industrial injection 45% over injectors, Fleece coolant bypass, NV5600 with Valair twin disk organic towing clutch... and I will need to rebuild my T-case soon because it's leaking pretty good from the front drive line output shaft seal. Your video on the T-case rebuild is going to save the day!!! Thank you!!!!

Nice. Here I am with a mystery switch and using the column shifter. G56 swap someday with continued stock power. Appreciate your work and effort to share.

LOVE IT... got my DPC triple disc converter couple days ago was thinking "should i jsut throw it in or do the manual valve body with it." **Video drops** well that decides that lol. thanks for the solid info man. i think my whole drivetrain is built with your videos now lol

I been wanting to do this to my truck for a few years. Great video :)

Much appreciated the info man🤙 I've already spent enough this year but might go fmvb next year

Good ol Merr making her spicy. Great video man, keep it up.

Wish I had this video when I put mine in. Fantastic content thanks!!!

When you went over the wires for the shifter told me right off you've been doing the wiring for the shop haha

Nice install Josh 👍🏻

Towing wise I will never go back to a reg vb. Get stuck once and fall under the charger on a hill and have the safety’s in the vb always grab the next gear too soon and snuff out the charger and you end up stuck in 2nd or third locked when you know you could get it back up into fourth if it would do what you told it too do. Lol. Happened once coming out of Vegas. Never again. I call them half and half’s though and I really like those for daily’s/towing. In third it will run like a auto, but you turn off the gear shift safety’s so it will go to 2,1 anytime and stay till you change gears. Take lock up and od away from the pcm. Absolute dream to drive. But maybe im partial. I have been a fmvb guy since highschool lol. Killer video!!!!

Be sweet to see you use one of Bradley's chargers as a secondary 👌

Been thinking about putting one in my truck, ever since I drove Chris Pattersons mega cab!

Been waiting on this one! Interested to hear your thoughts on towing with a FMVB. Really not wanting to shell out the coin for a built 68, so I'm strongly considering a 48 FMVB swap for my '16. And, you're only about 3.5 hours from me (NC).

I would love to see that 472 over the savage fab 351. That's only because my truck will have a very similar setup. But mine has the fleece lift pump and an nv5600. Sorry for being a little greedy lol. Keep up the awesome work fella.

Thank you for the great information great job keep it going

0:38 it's the same kind of guy that looks at a 6.0 and goes "Yup, that will be a reliable 600hp daily."

Been waiting for this one! Love it man! You have a part number for the shifter?

The guy working on them!!

Nice one handed Bronc ride there at the end. 😂

Very helpful im doing a 96 12v 47re fmvb swap into a chevy. 1 I adjusted the cable from park an had it jump into reverse while i was under it an 2 im running the ecm pmc tcm what ever it is for the tach an speedo an had the lock up an od wires to toggles an grounds i was relaying on the computer for the 12v for pin 1 but... with the gov pressure sensor unplugged that didnt work ran it to fused keyed power an got my od an lock up to work 3 im running pretty much the same line pressure setup but was running off a different port...ftw thanks for the info

Great content as always. Definitely have a lot of control with the FMVB. Very interested to see how the towing duties go with it. I've already got an nv5600 truck as a tow piggy, so I already enjoy shifting. My biggest thing I want is an exhaust brake to go with it and compounds. I'm guessing a modded 351 with a s475 or s480 would be a good setup on that for towing. Have you ever run any of the DPS turbonator set ups? That would be an interesting set up to see in there for the exhaust brake/vgt functionality they offer.

Twins are always the best for towing

Pretty decent Snappy collection, I am a tool fanatic myself.

you ever use braided wire loom? dorman makes really nice stuff that's much easier on the fingers lol super clean look too. keep up the great work!

Looks fun!!

Doing a 7.3 reseal while I listen to this. 😂😂😂😂😂 Caught me off guard.

Hell Yeah Brother 🇺🇸🦅

Burn out was smooth. 👍

Stealth 64 or whichever one Calibrated Power is manufacturing and redesigned to replace to factory 4th gen air spinny squishy device, then you get an exhaust brake for towing as well

I shift both of my 47s manually when I'm towing. They aren't obnoxious. I guess it comes from driving truck for several years.

Nice ride

Good to see those Epi pens in there! Those save lives

I mean you definitely have some points about the 7.3 but I feel like it depends on what kind of person you’re if you want reliability I feel like the 7.3 tops all I mean it’s proven itself now if you want something fast and quick witch you can do to a 7.3 to some point but that point is definitely lower than other trucks also before I got a 7.3 I knew nothing about diesel’s and it taught me so much so I definitely feel it’s a easy truck to work on

Gah I would love to have that , I had the exact! Truck !! And when family members passed I had to sell my 06 Mega Cab 4x4 6Spd and it had the dark blue paint job can’t remember rn what Mopar called it but it was beautiful! I miss it I hope one day I can afford another because now I have a family and the mega cab! Would be Fn great lol there’s my 06 story some will understand 😅

Need a holster mount on the side

Those are some real fighin' words on the old 7.3..... You're not wrong, but I'll still drive them

Love the WPE buttons. Hate they don't make them any more!

Thats so awesome on how simple that setup is, and is the dash indicator only in the tune or also in the VB

That’s cool man

The button side plate is pretty sweet. Can I get that through you?

Hey Josh where do the 3rd gen 6.7 67mm turbines come from on the vgt turbos? Is it what's stock from the 4th gen turbine and exhaust housing?

When ya get your metal fab materials from Lowes you know your ghetto'ing it. LOL. JK, great video on linkage adustment. I've fought that one before when I didn't know better.

Hey Josh do you use the original rooster comb on a manual Vb I know you have to use a 48re on a 47re? Also do you keep the ttca hooked up?

Other than cool feature, is there a purpose for converting to this? Just curious, never seen anything like this before. Also any drawbacks to installing one of these? Thanks!

Put that giant 133mm turbo on it. Full boost too.

Question; why do you need a lock out on going to third? Thanks, great video

Whats the part number on the ol b&m shifter if you dont mind sir?

Awesome video!!!! Let us know how you like it especially for those of us at the low HP 😒 level. I really want to install one of these. I have always wanted a “manual” truck and see this as the next best thing 😂. Is PDD good place to get a MVB from? Do you guys offer them? I have PDD 650hp trans. Still be ok to run a MVB? Thanks Adrian

Does anyone offer a complete kit minus the valve body or even with? I have been looking at shifters 🤯. Which shifter is needed to many options. Adrian

Does anyone make a 3 button insert so you could add an exhaust brake?

Great video. Where do I get the buttons for the shifter? Links for the products please. Thanks man

So does this have the same advantages as a manual transmission??

Great video ..Would that work with the 03 f350 automatic ? I know you guys have a 6.0l as well but our trans would be the same would they not ? The 510 re

I'm with you on those power strokes....who wants to snatch the cab off on something so simple when you can have a Cummins and get to any regular maintenance item in minutes.

Just out of curiosity how do I retain the range selector like you did during a FMVB swap? I would like my dash to work like yours.

😂😂 hey according to google the 7.3 is the holy grail

Just curious, what happens if you forget to unlock over drive and shift down to second? Is the valving setup in a way to prevent that from happening or is it something you just have to pay attention to and not forget?

Do you happen to have a part number on that shifter I’m wanting the one like that without switches because I’m wanting to run the tier one buttons

Hey man, I know this is an older video so I hope this reaches you. I noticed you don't have a TTVA? is it not required when you have a FMVB?

Where is a good place to find the pieces needed to make that gauge setup?

Honestly I’m one of those who would gladly take a 7.3

Ok, I have to know, how is it tuned to be able to show up on the dash and reverse lights. Currently having to run my truck with a manual tune, so I no gear selector on dash.

When you sled pull with your fmvb do you leave in third or leave in second lock then grab third?

I can't seem to find a -4an to 1/4in fitting and the part numbers in the video don't seem to bring anything up. I think I've found everything else in the video, just can't find that one fitting

Been a while since you had a triple turbo setup

Have you tested or ever ran the pdd line pressure gauge? I just ordered one but noticed you went with a "mechanical" gauge

6.0 non-VGT turbo

Do you have to do any additions internally on these transmission to run this set up? Or can it be thrown on a auto 48re with what your video shows.

Wish my 47re shifted that smooth, it bangs going into each gear unless I’m at the perfect low rpm range say 1800 rpm and locking the converter from 1-2 2-3 is rough as all get out😒

7.3 doesn't need billet heater/ac flaps tho. Last time I checked, Cummins guys swapping in a 4r100 transmission is an actual thing that happens. But serious, is the actual cost of getting a 12v to 600hp vs a 7.3 to 600hp all that different, all things considered?

Not sure if I’m a fan of that ratchet shifter. Would rather have muldoons with the switches for lockup and overdrive. Much cleaner I think

Do you run a aftermarket trans temp gauge with this setup? Or throw the pin from harness into that plug?

I know how a myer valve body is, they can be spicy, or not wanna shift into 2nd or 1st😂

👍💪

Is this a forward fmvb or a reverse??

How different is this procedure for a 47?

So did you have to do anything to the valve body?

Where did you get that shifter from?

I have a feeling it has nothing to do with my VB but when I replaced mine, Ive had a bitch of a time getting mine to read park without having my alarm go off when I leave my door open… pisses me off when I go to hook up my trailers

Hey bud, how can I dm you? Cheers

Power stroke. Not me 😂😂😂😂

Where's your TV cable and spring did you not reinstall it

What is ttva

Im ignorant of this shifter, but what is the point of this why not just get a 6 speed? Is this just so you can shift in a automatic? I'm confused could someone please clarify for me please and thank you.

Got enough epi pens? 😂

There is never a last oil leak

Waz that part # for the wiring thingamahjig please?

Dude sell me one of your banners on wall

Dude I wanna pull my g56 and put in a 48 w/ fmvb so bad. So sick of that slow clunky ass manual.

I'm kinda lost.. am I missing something really big here? All you did was move your shifter linkage and the bottons from factory? The truck was full manual before you did that? is this is what a manual swap looks like? Because you didn't even change anything. You relocated factory controls? And the you even said the factory cable works better then the one you installed? Wtf are you guys smoking?

Good video quality was fine and if anyone doesn’t feel that needed information was not included shouldn’t be doing this anyway

That intro was right on (power jokes are junk and duracracks are even worse
