TWEEEEEEEET!!!  Time OUT!  Before you go cuttin' up the car . . .

1.  It's not the bellhousing bolts that are a problem,
     it's the two upper bolts that mount the transmission
     to the bellhousing.

2.  You can undo them with a small selection of socket
      extensions, elbows, and "crows-feet" or "b-nut" tools.

Once you get the transmission shoved back into the tunnel,
you can lower the rear of the motor enough to get at the
bellhousing bolts.
