Surprisingly people are even adapting them to go behind LS motors, is the ZF 8HP70 that much better than the GM 6L80/90 or 8L90? I guess the smaller BMW bellhousing would give you more clearance in typical import car swap applications than the huge Chevy bellhousing pattern.

Yes, and Yes.
The standalone controllers allow you to shift it sequentially, and even use a clutch-by-wire setup. We're getting a little off topic here, but this is a pretty cool topic too, so whatev, hah.
