Installing a 8 Speed auto Transmission in your Pontiac 8HP

Thanks, I'm looking for someone with experience in doing this swap. You are not the guy. It's been done enough times they are producing engine adapters for it. It's been done. I would like a conversation with that person.

Installing a 8 Speed auto Transmission in your Pontiac 8HP

You are asking a very obscure question about something that is unlikely to have ever been accomplished. There are places that make 3D printed plastic mockup engines and transmissions for all manner of automotive powertrain equipment - for maybe $300-400 USD. These would greatly assist you.
When you do an obscure swap like this, you must accept the risks of being first with so little aftermarket support. All I can offer you at this point is a tape measure and a notepad. Without a plastic mockup engine and plastic ZF 8HP transmission, you are left with your own "imagineering".

ANYONE tried to install one in a second gen firebird? Adapter supplier indicated a guy in CA ordered one. The adapter is sold tru sales@seemslegitgarage.com, or Seemslegitgarage.
They indicate the adapter takes 6 weeks to build and cost $1575.
I need to know how it fits the tunnel and ground clearance for the pan.....
