What’s Included in the LS to Z33 Adapter Kit

This Z33 350z LS swap adapter kit will allow you to mate a Nissan 350Z (Z33) 6 speed transmission to an LS Series (i.e.; 4.8, 5.3, 5.7, 6.0, and 6.2 liter gen III or IV Vortec engines).
These transmissions were available from 2003-2006 in Nissan 350Zs.
The kit includes a custom steel flywheel, 3/8" steel powder coated adapter plate, pilot bushing adapter, hi-torque starter adapter (Use your existing hi-torque mini starter, or purchase separate.) and hardware.
The flywheel can be used with any OEM or aftermarket 350Z clutch assembly.
It is a direct bolt-on flywheel made for billet steel and weighs 30 lbs.
The kit uses a stock 350Z pilot bushing with a machined steel adapter (both included).
The starter adapter on the Z33 kits utilizes a Small Block Chevy (SBC) mini starter (GF-MS-SBC) available from G Force.
This kit requires no Z33 transmission modifications, with the exception of some heavy wall bellhousings which may require a slight clearance trim for the flywheel ring gear. The trim involves polishing away 0.06" over an area not much larger than a postage stamp.)
The LS block requires the removal of a small casting boss to provide clearance for your high torque starter. This is a simple modification with a hand grinder. Detailed instructions provided with your purchase.
Use standard GM specs when tightening to the LS crank, block, etc. Use Nissan specs when tightening the pressure plate, etc.
