[QUOTE=Stoenr;1445847]I hear you cant really get to them when its all together, not enough room through the inspection hole? (I have not been under this car to verify)
you can get to them good enough to tighten them. I put a built transmission in the Grand Prix about 3 years ago, and when I did, I used an L36 (n/a) torque converter, which has a different bolt pattern of the L67 (sc), so to make it work, we bored out the holes in the flex plate. well, several years later, the holes elongated more, the bolts loosened up, and upon inspection, we were able to tighten the bolts. I've been going easy on the car since then, and it isn't my daily driver, so at some point, I'm thinking I will drop the transmission and replace the plate with a better one.
