You just flash it in TWRP, which you said you had. So just put the modem file on your sd and press install.

Thanks, once again, to an anonymous donor we now have the ZV8 TOT. I have also broken down the TOT and uploaded the individual partitions which can be flashed if rooted and custom recovery(TWRP) is installed. Speaking of root... ZV8 blocks StumpRoot and Bump. If you wish to have a rooted ZV8 you must be previously rooted, have TWRP installed and then install ZV8 manually. If you end up taking the ZV8 OTA and want root then -AS OF RIGHT NOW- you will need to downgrade using the ZV4 TOT then root and install TWRP... then upgrade manually to ZV8, either by flashing individual partitions or waiting for a flashable zip.

Flash this TOT using the same method as ZV4/ZV6. You will need to select "Board DL" in LG Flash, otherwise you will get stuck. After the TOT flashes it will reboot your phone into the "MiniOS".. unplug the USB cable and press and hold the power button on the phone then press on the "Normal Boot" option on your phones screen. You are now on stock ZV8. Remember... there is no root for ZV8 so do not flash ZV8 TOT unless you don't mind being without root.
**after TOT flash the Sprint-specific carrier settings many not be set properly and in some cases a ##786# reset may be needed to correct this issue. Phone will work just fine otherwise. If flashing a custom rom zip or manually updating through TWRP this will most likely not be needed**

Thanks to @colin0998 and @juggalo483 for the system.img mirrors HERE and HERE.
Also, you may need a "bump'd" stock boot.img if you are still running on the old KK bootloader. See my post HERE for a bump'd boot.img.
The ZV8 bootloader blocks Bump... do not flash the bootloader img files if you want to use Bump'd files. If manually updating I'd suggest system.img, boot.img, modem.img, tz.img and rpm.img.
To manually flash a partition in TWRP use ADB shell or TWRP's built in terminal to enter the following commands after placing the files on your internal sdcard (changes to commands will be needed if file names change or location of img files changes):
(be sure to wipe data in TWRP [wipe button > swipe slider] if coming from an "AOSP-type" rom)Code:dd if=/sdcard/system.img of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/system dd if=/sdcard/boot.img of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/boot dd if=/sdcard/modem.img of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/modem dd if=/sdcard/rpm.img of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/rpm dd if=/sdcard/tz.img of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/tz
--ZV6-to-ZV8 OTA update.zip *HERE*
Thanks to @nkyer for dumping and uploading the original update.zip.
You must be on ZV6 and have a stock recovery and stock system partition for this to work. If you are on ZV4 you must update to ZV6 first.. see HERE for how-to on that. Being rooted may be OK but if you've edited or removed apks or other files or edited the build.prop then OTA zip may fail the integrity check. Root probably won't stick thru OTA.. until someone confirms one way or the othe the risk is yours.
Directions:
1. Rename downloaded .zip into update.zip
2. Remove USB cable from phone.
3. Power phone off.
4. Press and hold volume down + power until you boot into stock recovery.
5. Select "update with adb"
Code:adb sideload update.zip
Alternate Directions to skip using ADB (needs microSD card):
1. Format microSD card as EXT4.
2. Rename downloaded .zip to update.zip
3. Move update.zip onto external SD card. EZ way would be to stick SD card in phone then connect phone to PC and use MTP.
4. Power off and boot into stock recovery (vol down + power)
5. Select the Update from SDCARD option.
Alternate Directions to skip using ADB (must have root):
1. Stick OTA zip file in the /cache directory
2. Power off and boot into stock recovery (vol down + power)
3. Select the Update from cache option... then select the update zip you placed in /cache
