To get the pin out put the trans back in the car and act like you're assembling it.
I can't keep mine in when trying that, in fact I have three 4L60E's right now and the pins fall right out on all of them.
To get a stuck pin out use some vise grips clamped on as tight as you can and heat the aluminum just a little.
For the bellhousing bolts keep an eye on ebay, I just sold a whole set for $15 shipped. Theres a new set on there now for $40, but I've seen them come and go for cheap. Look around too, I bought a V6 4L60E off craigslist for $30, thats where the bolts I sold came from.

On second thought, I'd plug the accumulator feed. You don't even need to install the piston when you do that. The fourth accumulator is the only one you should ever block, it'll firm up the 3-4 shift a tiny bit. A lot of builders do this.
