This pan supposedly fits all the ZF 8HP variants, including 45, 70 and 90. There are confirmed 8HP45 fitments. It should cover 55 as well. The pans and mechatronics are identical up to HP70, with minor differences in some HP90 variants, so it should check out.

It's a bit deeper, so it may not be ideal for lowered cars, but reports say it runs 10* cooler, it holds 2 extra quarts and has a temp sensor bung.

I know there's another deep, finned aluminum pan out there, too, that I've seen, but I can't find the brand or find it for sale. Post up if you find others.

I know that Dodge/Chrysler 8HP's are based on the ZF design, but I do believe there are a few differences since they manufacture their own version.

But... I rolled the dice and purchased one of these.
I'll update here if it fits the ZF8HP70(X) from an F36 435D swapped into an E9X.

Thanks for sharing.
