Lt1 Bell housing bolts
Alright, when i first got back into the shop, i had 1.8 hours or so to get my tranny out of my car, so needless to say, i did a very fast job, i ripped **** out of there and got it done, and to the re-builder that night... Its gonna be done soon and re-installing its gonna take longer I suppose, b/c I did a **** poor job of bagging and tagging all bolts and nuts when I took it apart.
I pulled the tranny from the bell housing, so the clutch/bell housing assembly is all still on the motor, and hte slave is hanging there.
When I pulled the tranny, every single bell housing bolt was different ( it seems ) whether it was different head sizes, lengths, or thread pitches, they were all different. I don't know if this is the way they were supposed to be or if the car was thrown together once before, but know I have like 8-10 bolts of differing sizes that I wanna know where they go, a diagram would rock!!!

All the bolts should be the same. The last guy that R&R'd the unit lost the bolts. I think it's like 3/8-16 X 1 1/2. Do not use a stud kit, it'll make lining everything an even bigger bitch.
Get some Black Oxide 12 point bolts like ARP's 644-1500 (doulbe check the length). You'll be able to use a 12 point swivel socket on a long (like 24 inch) extension. You'll get it up there and the bolt will stay on the socket for you.
