wildstang Journeyman Posts: 57 From: somewhere in Vermont Registered: May 2000	posted 03-06-2002 09:54 PM I have everthing unhooked and unbolted but the exhaust. The dam bolts are rusted solid in the manifold. Has anyone been able to do it without removing the exhaust or have any ideas on how to get the bolts out, I tried a torch on one but it did not loosen up and makes me very nervous with all the old oil grunge build up on the side of the block. Thanks for any help. IP: Logged

Go EASY with it,acouple of blows in reverse,a couple forward and on. That will hopefully loosen things up. Be sure to let it soak in penetrating oil first. Can you just pull the trans,without the bellhousing? IP: Logged
