Question New ZF 8sp retrofit into 3rd gen?

Anybody know if somebody has put one of the new ZF TorqueFlite HD 8AP1075 transmissions from the 2025+ trucks into a third gen yet? I'm honestly done shifting my G56 esp with the TERRIBLE South Bend dual disc clutch I had installed in early 2022.

I looked into the Allison conversion options and they get extremely expensive, and if I'm gonna spend anywhere near that, I want more than six gears. Plus every time I start looking at new trucks I get frustrated with the high prices and terrible option configurations -- like being forced into the big 12" screen that eliminates all the HVAC buttons. And that thing has a reputation for failure every few years.

My 2005 is still pretty darn nice... 177k miles, still nice inside and out. I'd never sell it, but I sure would like to make it nicer.

So anyway I thought I'd ask.
