Default PLEASE HELP...bellhousing bolts.

Hey guys,

I have no idea how to get the top two bolts out of the engine. These are the bolts at the top of the engine that hold the transmission and engine together. I believe they are e12 reverse torx bolts.

Does anybody have any solutions or tips on how to get these two bolts out??? Im pretty frustrated and will appreciate any help. Thanks, Tim

What engine do you have? Did you take the intake off?

Cool

In a pinch even a 12 point socket will do the trick, I believe 5/16 is close. (been there done that). You can also just head out to the store and buy the socket
