I am wondering if a 6R80 transmission will work on my 2011 Taurus SHO? What's the difference in a SHO Ecoboost and a F150
2011 SHO with a 2015 SHO engine. She started out as the 2011 SEMA SHO by Rick Bottom Designs. Which had the following-  H&R lowering springs, Baer Extreme brakes, 22 in axiom rims,  Razzi body kit, Corsa performance exhaust,  Airaid cold air intake,  no weeds exhaust diverted, and a few other items. I then took her to National Speed of Wilmington NC where I had bigger ATP turbos, firestorm high pressure fuel pump, catless downpipes, 170 Tstat, 3bar MAP, tial BOV,  EPP pipes,  colder spark plugs, and  HP tune.

Besides the fact that the SHO is tranverse and the F150 is not, meaning the 6r80 out of an F150 would in no way, shape, or form work in an SHO
Current:
2013 Ruby Red Flex Limited EcoBoost, Unleashed Tuned, drop in filter

Gone but not forgotten: 2011 SHO Non-PP in Black Tuxedo Metallic - Catback, DPs, Stoptech Z23s, MDesign CAI, LMS Tune

Block is fundamentally the same except for some bosses here and there. F150 Limited and F150 Raptor are the HO versions of the 3.5 and have different pistons. Heads between the transverse 3.5 (SHO/Flex/XSport) and the longitudinal 3.5 (F150/Expedition) are pretty different and Intake Manifold is WAY different, comes off the opposite direction.

I know there are other differences, but these are some of the major ones.
