I'll give that one a try. I've been doing the same thing changing the last number.
Original was 90119-12250, I tried 90119-12240 and 38/39/41/42 plus so many other number combos my mind has gone fuzzy.
Well starting this sleepless morning at 3 netted this hours later. Need to make some alignment pins and flanged sleeves, but think I can have this all machined in the next couple weeks.
Next biggest hurdle besides time is going to be a computer($$$). The Haltech Nexus S3 meets all the requirements as far as I/O. I have pins mapped and a decent grasp on the shift logic i/o vs maps, just need to see their ideas on using pwm solenoids.
There isnt much documentation that I can find, but it looks like I can do special tables linked to custom parameters which I feel will be needed.
Nothing exciting, but at least it's shiny

Cough, cough. 1FZ patterened A750. Clearances are tight as expected and managed to have one hole off(so far) but it all actually lines up. Need to get a couple bushings turned and pressed then figure a time for actual test fitting to an engine.
Time to hunker down and see if I can find the M12x38~40 bolt, seems to be the last piece of the puzzle. Might end up going to McMaster.
Edit: apparently I can't add images currently..

bellmetric.com is a great source for high-quality metric bolts that look like OEM
Super! I'll check them out later this evening.
Looks amazing
WOW! I completely forgot about this thread. When does mass production start? 
It sure turned out pretty at least.
I still need to prove out that it fits, fix one hole so far and then see if I want to try and make them or just release the file for others. Right now time is so short, not sure what's next.
At least it half fits!

Any updates?
A member here managed to swap in an 8 speed transmission.
I am posting the link here in case anyone needs to see the process and parts used (especially the ECU - TCU interface using another computer).

1FZ trans swaps 6R80 10R80 and more
Hi All On my other threads conversation is getting away from topic so I am starting a new thread. I have had an adapter built to use a Ford 6R80 behind my 1FZ using stock transfer case. I will post about that here, and also info on different transmission controllers available for the swap...

Keep an eye on this thread. Especially on page 3.

For ZF 8 speed swaps I found these parts.
Funny thing. I have had all the parts to swap the a750 minus the computer sitting here for a while, and if I ever get time/space/money I'd be more inclined to do the above.
Great to see parts out in the wild, and not ridiculously expensive.

Sometime soon (next few months) the Toyota 8-speed transmission swap kit should be available too.
are you affiliated with the above company with cool parts? Other than the cost of a Toy 8sp, is there any advantage over the 8HP trans?
