Installing a 8 Speed auto Transmission in your Pontiac 8HP

Featured Replies

I am looking to install a 8HP transmission in my second gen Trans Am. The ZF 8HP is a highly acclaimed 8-speed automatic transmission designed by ZF Friedrichshafen in Germany. Widely considered one of the best automatic transmissions ever made, it is revered for its lightning-fast shifts, superior fuel efficiency, and ability to handle massive amounts of torque. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]

The computer to shift it is here: For a plug-and-play installation tailored for a classic, carbureted engine, the Sound German Automotive (SGA) 8HP Transmission Controller Kit is the gold standard.

I know the adapter to mount it to the engine is here: https://www.adamat.com.pl/en/pontiac-400-kit-for-dodge-challenger-charger-hellcat-zf-8hp70-8hp90.html

Has anyone done this swap yet?
