Yeah, that bolt took me a while to find. Once you know it is there you are ok though and won't ever have to worry about it again. I didn't search, but I think that box controls the VATS system.
I'll take a picture of the giant box of wires I removed from the body harness. There's tons of things you can remove in there. Just take your time and check each wire before you remove it. A lot of them tie into the same circuitry.

Well i am a retard...I got all excited to fire it up and forgot to hook up the vacuum hose to the power booster and to the crank case breather...idle problem fixed after that but she is idling pretty rough hopefully i can figure it out.
Been there done that glad it worked out. Take you a breather and get the rest worked out. Theres days I work on mine just fine then days when I get frustrated with it and leave it for a while then get back to it again.

I would ditch the isolators and get some heater hose and a few zip ties to wrap around the top coil to keep it from squeaking. Should lower the rear a good 1/4-1/2 for about 15 mins worth of work.
