As far as the solenoids go...(I'll try to be brief) Had a 93 f350 with a 7.3 and the e4od. Broke the planetary so I got another e4od out of a 98. Connectors etc all different.(6 planetary instead of 3 planetaries, much stronger too) I wired the solenoids (to test) and ran the wires up to the dash. Put the truck in drive and nothing. Depending on which switch (or series of switches) I went through all the gears as well as locking up the converter. Even went for a test drive.
So, yes it can be done.
Hassle? Yeah, a bank of 4 switches that you toggle through going down the track?...that would be interesting to say the least in competition!
