2005 HPCR in '68 Ford

OK, I'll be the first to make a post. Thanks for creating this section.

I had AutoWorld in Montana put a 2005 Cummins HPCR and 48RE into my '68 F**d F250 Highboy. They sent it back not quite ironed out so I am still ironing out issues with tranny programming and such. Just finished installing a new fuel tank from Aero Tanks and new filter from Racor today. Hoping to get the bed back on in a day or two.

Looking forward to pics and details...

If you need any help with the tranny programming, shoot me a PM. I've messed with mine quite a bit.

Here are a few pictures - I hope.

I set the TC lockup to 50 mph and that seemed to help the shifting - but it hits almost at the same time as the shift to fourth - still needs some work. The TC lockup is really harsh. I see people using the option to use partial throttle tables, but I can't figure out how to make that work.
