In this video, we’ll be showing you how to install a PMC adapter and ACT clutch on a ZF transmission. Then we’ll mate the ZF transmission to our Ls swap. 🔔 Subscribe for more tips / @tim_misfitmfg
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
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
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!!!!!!

Question man I used the same adapter plate and same bmw trans I just am wondering how you attached the shifter to it did you have to get a different connection from shifter to transfer
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.
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.
I’m running this kit minus the clutch. I used an act clutch and disk. drifthq.com/products/pmc-motorsport-race-stage-1-800nm-adapter-kit-chevrolet-ls-ls1-ls3-ls7-bmw-m57n-gs6-53dz-hgd-f0m57-ls-k0m57-240-ls-sachs-243-240mm-32-5x35-26n?variant=44213819703483
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
Boss hizoo fingaz kila iliyoo ianabeba uzito wakilongapi kisha kilafingaz inauwezokuenda speed kishaa if you put imajensiy bleck inasimia kwa dayamita ngapi plz ryp
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?
