LT4 now, diesel's soon?

Watch the 1 minute video at the end of the article and note the engineers tonality and confidence, they have a winner.

I want this transmission in a diesel and I think it is going to happen some day.

I have a customer who is building parts for that transmission.

Article neglects to mention that it is a co-developed Ford/GM transmission with Ford being the "lead" on that project. GM is the "lead" on another co-developed Ford/GM transmission, the upcoming front-drive 9-speed. (Ford and GM have already been partners on the existing front-drive 6-speed transmission which has been around for a while.)

The 10-speed is being introduced in a high-performance model at both Ford and GM. In GM's case, it is the Camaro ZL1. For Ford, it is the Raptor version of the F150. This is being done partly to showcase the high-performance aspects of this transmission (high power capacity, fast shift times, high efficiency) but partly to allow production ramp-up and to make sure any hiccups that show up are only in a few vehicles instead of across the lineup.

This transmission will only be for longitudinal applications - trucks, Mustang, Camaro, some Cadillacs. It will eventually replace existing 6-speed and the short-lived GM 8-speed across the board.

The transverse applications have a co-developed 9-speed coming up but it's still a year or two away.

It will be in the ss as well and more as time goes by.

I thought it did mention it in the article ,
