I have ran into a small problem. I cant get to the top tranny bolt's!! Anyone have an easy solution for this? I was thinking about just taking the intake off and the distributor cap, but that would just create more work than its worth.

Well, I got the tranny bolts out and the tranny is already tore down. I went through every clutch and steel in the tranny, and everything seem's as though it was just rebuilt before I bought it! Here are a couple pictures for all of you picture ******.

this is what threw me, i took the input shaft out and there was an ear broke off and laying in the transmission.

Everything seemed great, but the only thing that bothered me is when i was unplugging the sensor's there was some tranny fluid trapped in one of them. So I am guessing that is what my problem was with the shifting. I need to take the sensor out and replace the o-ring and we should be good to go again!
