    We've got another 3800 in the place of my old one. Two out of the four bell housing bolts are in. The furthest one on the back will not line up. The one of the bottom (between the tranny and engine)...well that's a lost cause-still have extensions stuck in between there idk how to get those out.

    But anywho, can you run the engine without the bottom bell housing bolt in? I've heard it'll be fine. any advice? OR if you know an easier way to get that bolt in because obviously the method we're using sucks.

    Thank you.
