Well after sitting under there for an hour, I finally got that last stater bolt out. I think Im going to leave that one out so i dont have to deal with it again.
I ended up using about 2.5 feet of extensions with a swivel a quarter of the way from the bolt's and used a breaker bar. I ran the extensions above the tranny while it was hanging ( unbolted mounts)
Took me litteraly ten minutes to get the two top bolts out once I figured it out.

No, it only means that hes had more experience on numerous different cars, and was TRAINED in the easiest/least invasive techniques of car repair, but whats a few years of schooling and job experience when you have your own super awesome ideas, right? 
Forget what the professionals say, they only want the job done right, in the least amount of time possible anyway.
TimeforMiller has torn my engine down and put it back together pretty much on his own (i helped a little
), and pretty damn quickly if i do say so myself (a few hours). Hes a damn good mechanic and i trust his advice on pretty much everything with my car, repair, performance, whatever. Hes the first guy i go to when i have a question or need advice.
I got your back, mr flail.

No offense but just cause you're a Tech doesn't make your way any easier.

ok...did it myself...im a tech...using a wrench and trying to get it from top or w/e...no sorry...all you need to do.. is lower the tranny from the tranny cross memeber/mount whatver u want to call it get a long and i mean pretty long extension with a swivel and socket... have your head by like the back of the tranny puut a light up in there and you should see the bolts and should be able to get them with the socket/extension no problem.. had my tranny out in like 2hrs (doing it on the ground with jack stands)

Oh boy...looks like I have to sort of the facts from the b*llsh*t again.[/align]1)already have my intake off by myself last summer when I was going throught the car. so i can take it off.[/align]2)I personally watched Jim change George's oil last summer at Jim's bec george couldn't do it.[/align]3)Yes I fixed my intake manifold that broke when it fell over in the garage. For a TEMPORARY fix since the mustang was my DD at the time, i ground down the cracked area and used JB weld made for aluminum specifically The tab where the crack was, not even in a port just threw a tab, was fixed as and good as new but that does not matter anymore because I have a new upper and lower intake that will be going on. and before i bought those this spring i already bought new stock upper intake to replaced the cracked one so the problem is getting totally fixed one way or another this winter.[/align]4) I don't care if you have more car knowledge. I am not going to be the one who will be the grease monkey the rest of my life and I have plenty of knowledge to work on my own cars which is all i need.[/align]
