Just to let you know for the future the oil pan is supposed to go on first before the front and rear cover. Those seals will prematurely leak. Sometimes people get lucky but for others put the oil pan on first. They have alignment tools just for this purpose.
Had to use the universal clutch alignment tool once. Pretty straightforward. I ended up buying one for myself afterward. Can’t wait to see this thing drive🤙

Just FYI. Regardless if you're mating eng/tranny in the car or out of the car. Always buy longer bolts with same size and threads as your trans bolts. 2" and 4" longer bolts usually does the trick, the longer bolts act like pilot bolts. Less effort if you have a floor jack or scissor jacks to hold the trans up and onto the longer pilot bolts. Anyway, thx for the vid
Awesome Job!!!

Just your video!!!!!! I have my Ls built and was look to marry my Discovery 2 2001 trans. My trans is a zf will it work and how do I get one.Great Video!!!!!!
Good job spesarr ya fraywill na clach umejaribu kidoogoo kunamakosa
so, that means if zf8at trans can be used for connect with swap LS engine by this adapter?
Pro tip put the motor on the ground when you put the trans on when you have the motor in the air with no one to hold it it does this angle /| when mating when it can’t move it’s easy as pie

Yea i just got this kit, kind of unfortunate to pay $1500 and not receive a clutch alignment tool
link to the adapter? Great Video!
Hey men nice video! I think you used cx racing engine mount?. Did the trans mount bolt on the same place as stock? So same drive Shaft?

Yeah I used the same Zf driveshaft. There’s some adjustability with the driveshaft where the carrier bearing is.
I need help finding a adapter for my f01 bmw. I’m trying to mate an Ls with my zf6hp26 but can’t find adapter kits for my transmission. Please point me in the right direction.

Are there dowel pins that align the engine adapter plate to the transmission adapter plate when you assemble the transmission to the engine?

Since the fbody is rear sump, it should work. I have an fbody one in the garage as well as an additional Holley pan. I could take a side by side pic?

Hi there Tim, need you to tell me which model tranny you told PMC was needed. I don't see a ZF5 listed on their website. Of course if I'm missing something, let me know that too. Or if you could let us know the model you are using. Thanks for the help in advance.

Drift hq will help sort all the items needed for the swap. They were super helpful. I believe I used the Pmc adapter for ls to Zf and an act clutch for like a 323ci

Thanks for the info. I guess I was more asking which ZF trans the bracket is for. On the PMC website it says it’s for the ZF in a 328i and 330i but I’ve also seen that it only works for those trans in diesel cars. Was this a gas 328i trans in the video?
