Unhappy how many bolts?

I could only locate 4 bolts (2 top and 2 bottom) that attaches the transmission case and the engine block together. I though there would be more (like 6 bolts in total) according to my Haynes manual.

The car is an 90 n/a.

thanks,

I have an 88 NA and if i can remember correctly there were three on the top, one on pass. side(on bottom), and the two starter bolt. I think the two are pretty much the same.

I don't think it matters too much. When I did my last engine swap, I torqued down a bolt to much and it broke, but 5 out of 6 has been fine for the last year.
