Hey Guys,

When I pulled the engine before rebuild I disconnected the transmission and took it out from underneath. After rebuild, we decided to bolt the tranny up to the engine to drop it in from above, which went fine; however, I found a couple of the tranny bell housing bolts were longer than the others (I wasnt paying close attention when I took them out). For the purpose of dropping the engine-tranny back in I decided not to be concerned (no, the starter is not attached/in yet.), just bolt it up and go.... well, now it's time to make sure i have it right.

Does anyone know where the long bolts go? A diagram would be helpful...I'm still looking around for one.

Thanks!

Long bolts go in the holes with the bellhousing dowel pins.
