    1FZ trans swaps 6R80 10R80 and more

    I did some experimenting with rotating the transfer case last night and looked at the rotation of the fill plug and what happens to the volume of oil in the transfer case. Stock orientation: Rotated 12.5 degrees: Your comment has raised a valid concern. In the pictures above you can...

    That is a good suggestion and eliminates the need to modify the starter. Too late for this Proto 1 installation, but I will bring that up with Daniel. I have drilled my starter out already and the bell housing adapter has M12 x 1.75 threads in it. Thanks for bringing this up.

    Not a silly question at all. I will look at the location of the fill plug and the vertical change in location after rotation. If the fill plug is on the driver's side of the center of rotation (output shaft of transmission), then it will move lower as it rotates. If it is on the passenger...

    So, everything is peachy so far, right? Moving right along, feeling confident, covered all the bases, feeling that bit of pride on a job well done, then, BAM!!! You missed something..... Yup, Mr. Murphy is not done with this project yet, not by a long shot. Not a show stopper, but something...

    The install of the transmission went very smooth. We raised it up with just a bit of clearance to the dowel pins and then had to adjust some angles. It slid right in. All the bolts lined up, torqued them. This kit moves the transfer case back 78.75 mm (3.1"). The gas tank is limiting factor...

    Dodge 8HP75 boss removal - continued: Transmission installation was easy. We installed the torque converter (with both adapters, tc and snout) on the input shaft of the transmission. Make sure you get it all the way in, rotate it back and forth, lift up and take the weight off. I forgot...

    Started the swap on Saturday. Trans and transfer case are both in. I will not go into details on how to remove the stock transfer case and transmission. Nothing new to cover there, just get them pulled out, and, use a good transmission jack, will save you a bunch of time. All removed...

    I think I used a longer bolt to deform it. But now that I know it needs to be bent, I would twist it a bit before install.

    Wit's End Turbo Owners - Thread #2.....

    As I recall, I had to use a longer bolt to then "deform in place" the tab to fit the bracket on the bell housing. It needed to twist and flex to fit the bracket. Two pictures below. Let me know if you need different angles.

    I finalized the designs and prints for the BMW shifter brackets and bezel. Using ASA plastic, which has high temperature tolerance and UV resistance. As I mentioned before, to put the BMW shifter in the stock location, the stock shifter plate assembly needs to be modified to remove all of the...

    The swap is scheduled for April 20th. I need to have everything swapped over by Monday morning the 22nd so that I can have a tech from TurboLamik USA remote log into my laptop and do the initial setup on the TCU. After that, it will be in adaptation mode and I will drive it and let the TCU...

    Wit's End Turbo Owners - Thread #2.....

    The intercooler being discussed is an air to water design, similar in concept to what Landtank did with the supercharger More moving parts than an air to air intercooler, but, it does allow for positioning of the intercooler in the optimum location to avoid pressure drop and complex ducting...

    Wit's End Turbo Owners - Thread #2.....

    It would be located on above the valve cover, centered between the turbo outlet and the throttle body inlet. That is a very narrow space vertically, which is what z direction refers to, the distance from the top of the valve cover to the hood and how much of that distance this intercooler would...

    I could help with a 3D scan of the turbo outlet and TB inlet. Would include the valve cover. Need to finish my 8hp75 transmission swap first. Two weeks and then 8 speed time..

    Thanks. If that is an issue I can probably figure out a filter on the ground wire. I work with a bunch of RF and MW EE’s. They are all about filtering power and ground.

    Thanks for the info, this was very detailed and clearly spelled out. I was wondering if they were actually the same clock spring, and you have just confirmed it. Looking in the EWD the block labeled C15 for the Cruise Control Switch does show a ground connection for pin 20. Does that ground...

    Oooo, cool 3D models. Nice original work. I like to see that. As far as saving money goes, this is not the project to do that... Cost per extra gear added is about $2k.... Thanks for the link. I am going to get an LX450 clock spring to avoid running wires through the center. That was a...

    If I have room over the top, then I am going to run a short loop of hose from both the inlet and outlet over to the stock transmission cooler lines on the passenger side. I will see how the transmission shifts and if I think I need to remote mount the temperature modulator. If I do not have...

    Thanks for that tip. That just might work for this. The TurboLamik needs two wires from the paddle shifters, up and down. Looking at some aftermarket paddle shifters, they just need power and ground. That could very well be the path to having paddle shifters with this transmission.
