I know this has been discussed before but everything I have found on the site is so old the pictures are no longer there. I am in the process of installing a ls2 from an 05 GTO into my 98 Z3 using the 4l60e automatic transmission. My Vorshlag headers should be here this week and from what I can see looking at pictures will probably need to be modified. I was just wanting to know what other issues I might be facing, the transmission is in with some gentle massaging to the tunnel. If you have done this swap before any help would be greatly appreciated.
Likely have a better chance in the conversion forum. Can't help with this combo tranny and header. Did you call Vorschlag?
Careful with the cooler lines. Give them some room. The hard lines stick out pretty far from the fitting on that trans. The chassis is stiff but it still moves around under extreme load. You could easily pinch the hard lines if too close to the tunnel. I use a Jerico tranny and thought I had plenty room for the 3/4 shift lever. At high speed and WOT things would move just enough to pop me out of 4th gear. Looking at it in the pits you would never think it would move that much. And I use solid mounts.

Thanks for the reply most of what I see in the conversion form is older but I have found someone that I believe has done this so hopefully I can reach him through the forum.
