Default T 56 Removal Question

how are you guys getting to the top bolt that connects bellhousing to motor? the one between the firewall and the back of the motor.

Are you coming from the engine bay or from underneath?

I got it from the bottom of the car with an 18inch extention. I didn't know you could get it from the engine bay with just the intake off. Hell I will try that next time.

I wouldn't waste my time with taking the intake off. You can get to it with a swivel and a good amount of extensions from underneith, about 18" like mentioned before.

Take the intake off and break the oil pressure sender like everyone else.

**** that, drop the back of the trans and use extensions.
