Yep. I'm sure there is multiple people watching my threads just ROFL from this project. it went from one thing to another and doesn't seem to stop. Probably gonna just EZ out it if need be, worse case scenario, I just drill it out and re thread the hole 1 size larger. could always be worse, could be a head bolt

Try and clean up the existing one first before going bigger.

Checked the bolt, has 2 threads sticking out the top... Gonna have to pull the rockers to get a good grip and twist on it slowly... Got the tranny back in and mounted in the rear, recommend not doing it unless you got a transmission jack or a lift lol

Buddy of mine is a mechanic, took head over to machine shop in area, said they'd only charge about 25-40 depending on labor for removing it. He tried to use an ez out on it but couldn't get it... Now we play the waiting game.... Going to finish up my wiring under the car and finish up the front end with the control arms.
