do you have the special GM specific torx socket? i had the same problem stripping the bolt heads and breaking the sockets.
i have to drill the heads off of the bolts. after the heads come off and you take the bell housing off the remaining part of the bolt can be removed with a pair of pliers or vice grips. if you do not have the special torx you will continue to strip the heads of the bolts. i also put a little heat on them too.
