I'm putting a running 12A from my wrecked 7 (84 GS MT) into a 7 with a nice body but a blown apex seal (83 GSL AT). I got everything disconnected and the cherry picker holding the engine but I cant get to the one bolt that holds the tranny(auto) to the motor. Any tricks to help?

 

there is a cover (i think on the bottom) that you remove, and then you can spin the tq converter and loosen the bolts. be careful the tq converter holds like eleventeen gallons of fluid

 

Get a shop a manual you will cause a lot le$$ damage.

More than one bolt connects the motor to the transmission and more than one bolt connects the flywheel to the torque converter.

Make sure to get a good grip on the torque convertor bolts. 14mm and there should be four of them.
