That would nice to see. I have a 2000 7.3 with a 6 speed manual transmission, so when I'm too old and tired of shifting the truck it would be nice to get a reliable 6 speed automatic.
How does the transmission computer (TCU) know throttle position with a mechanical cable throttle like this 12v Cummins has? The TCU needs important info like vehicle speed and throttle position in order to determine when to make a shift, especially with the adaptive learning that the Allison does. Doesn't the TCU log that info into the adaptive learn tables as you drive? I'd really like to know more. Anyhow, love your pioneering ingenuity and professional quality that are making so many dream truck builds a reality. It's about time someone put a worthy automatic behind the beloved 7.3 Powerstroke and, of course, the legendary 12v Cummins. The extra two gears will make these engines more fun and usable. No longer do you have to sacrifice two gears and reliability as an alternative to pumping a clutch/rowing gears in traffic. You can have your cake and eat it too! Keep doing what you're doing. Incredible work!
We have a tps sensor and cable assembly that we add to it so that is has something to reference. Yes, the 7.3 really loves the extra 2 gears, they by far pick up the highest fuel mileage gain of any of them. Thank you very much, if you have any other questions fill free to ask.
If like to add that the tps they installed is remote mounted on my truck, and is a more robust and reliable piece of kit. They do not use the oem failure prone TPS that came with the 47rh(mounted on the p7100). The adaptive learning is great, the truck seems adapt to different loads. With the camper and 28ft trailer loaded on the back it will shift abruptly once, and then it just says “ok, so youre using a lot more throttle than usual” and shifts are consistent with the load on the truck and smooth again. Same goes for going back to “unloaded” or calmer driving, one abrupt shift and it just changes whatever it does and back to normal. Just came back from a 3000 mile, 2 week road trip, 10500lbs vehicle weight, larger tires, lifted as seen. 17mpg average over the entire trip. This is favorably comparable to driving a stick, without any of the effort. This transmission and everything CAC touched has been utterly trouble free.

We agree, it is an expensive option. If you plan to keep your truck long term and don't want to buy and 80k + new truck that will live in the shop its a great option. So many of our customers are fed up with things and are just rebuilding their truck or building one from ground up with all the stuff they want and are done.

It’s hard to quantify, because the truck weight increased with a camper after install. But at 10,500lbs not towing, the truck gets an honest 17mpg at any speed on the highway. Considering the large tires, the lift, and the engine being turned up. It’s great mileage. The allison locks in 2nd gear and stays locked up through 6th and back down to under 20mph… making it directly comparable to a manual trans truck. Just finished another 3000 mile road trip. And it calculated out to over 17mpg average
@@stevenfrench8831 I think the kit cost is around 14-15k, mine was higher to include labor. It’s a great change and really made a great truck into a phenomenal truck.

I'm from Australia and CA Conversions is doing is great, It would be great if we had this in Australia.
It would be great to see more videos of different motors running Allison's.
the next time we get a 7.3/6.0/6.4 we will get a video of it and post it

Want this done on my 03 SOOOO bad. But word on the street that this conversion is SOOOO expensive
Cheaper than buying a new truck. Working on doing mine right now, along with some other upgrades.

What kind of magic can you guys work on the 2500HS? Looking for up to 450-500hp and upwards of 1300-1400 torque from a p pumped 24 valve.
How much for the conversion i have a 2006 ram mega cab
i've got the same truck basically 4 wheel drive long wheel base regular cab Would like info on pricing
Hey, is there an Allison conversion for 2015 Ram 2500 6.7 4x4?
Nice!!
Must be cheaper than more people will do it I like to put it in my 07 cab and chassis but can't afford that money unfortunately
We agree, it is very expensive, we wish we could bring it down. The prices on material, raw aluminum, steel, electronics keep going up on us.
What does something like that cost. I have a 1999 cummins.
What year is the truck .. title says 98’ early in the video you said 94’ the. In the truck you said 95’ and those trucks didn’t come with 3:42s
So an Allison 1000 will fit in the transmission tunnel without modification to the tunnel?
Yes.
How much money to do this?
Shoot me some details on your truck, I would be happy to get you a price. If you want shoot me a message on Facebook.
I AM TELLING YOU THIS! ITS WORTH EVERY FN PENNY BUD EVERY ONE!
THANKS CAC🤠
@@caconversions4591where can I get more info from on this build?
What year truck is it? First he says it's a 1994 then a 1995 but the description says a 1998 I'm confused!
My truck, it’s a 94. But the years make no difference to the conversion process (apart from minor specificities)
@@dfb052686 Thanks for the confirmation. How much if you dont mind me asking?

They guy that put the video together got mixed up on the year models. 94-98 on our side is pretty much all the same when it comes to conversion stuff.
I can’t even imagine what this would cost !!
😢
For the guys that are done buying trucks that want to be done with trans issues and want the benefits of a 6speed, its worth it to them.

Depends on final drive gear ratio
