Converting a FMVB back to a regular VB.
Ok I converted my 97 from a NV4500 to auto with a constant pressure FMVB 47RE out of a 2001 truck.
I'm wanting to go back to a regular style self shifting VB, and eventually a Anteater controller for racing purposes. I found this post doing some searching, and no I don't have a Goerend VB in my transmission but if Dave's can be reversed so easily why can't mine? This seems like it would be a whole lot more cost effective rather than having to sell my VB and buy a newly built one.

Yes it can be, the separator plate, 1-2 shift valve and 1-2 gov plug get changed off the top of my head, I got it wrote down in my book at home. And re add the transducer/solenoid. I think it was like 35 bucks plus the electronics. I'm sure any tranny shop can sell you what you need, finding one that will is another question. I got the run around from a few well known shops that just wanted to sell me a new valve body, and told me it was impossible to reverse.

Man, that sucks you're having to deal with the unplanned :bs: But, I was recently pondering the same question about one of Lavons fmvb :confused:

Step one is figuring out who built the VB you have, once you know that you can order the correct parts.
