318/8 Speed Swap

That's pretty interesting. The info I've heard is that Mopar doesn't sell crate 8HP70s because ZF refused to allow it. The trans only lives because of torque management, and without a link between the ECU and TCU to support calls for reduced torque on shifts, they'll die.

The Sound German setup either talks to the Hemi ECU over CAN and works like stock, or has an output for aftermarket ECUs to ask for reduced timing. The other controllers like HTG and Turbo Lamik that replace the TCU entirely also ask for reduced power on shifts, but try to keep it alive by brute force as well, faster shifting, higher pressures, reduced number of maps, etc.

All that to say, I'm really interested in how Blue-print was able to make a deal that, seemingly, Chrysler wasn't able to make happen. They were talking about finally making them available as the Torqueflight 8, but nothing has been announced besides some of the Roadkill nights sponsored teams getting 8HPs with their Hurricrate engines.
Looks like even Blueprint Engines has jumped on the 8HP bandwagon.

Considering that GM has an 8 and 10 speed auto, seems like pretty high praise for BP to cast their own bellhousing to bolt an 8HP to an LS.
