joeb Posted June 21, 2007 Report Share Posted June 21, 2007 what type of wrench/tool do you use to loosen the conv bolts? the picture is a little misleading. the bolt is down just enough that you cannot reach it with a regular socket or universal joint. do you need to use a 18mm offset box wrench or ? i assume you reach the bolts thru the starter opening?

KHE Posted June 21, 2007 Report Share Posted June 21, 2007 Remove the torque converter bolts from underneath the car - there is an inspection cover that needs to be removed. Rotate the converter to gain access to each bolt. Kevin '93 Fleetwood Brougham '05 Deville '04 Deville 2013 Silverado Z71 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joeb Posted June 21, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 21, 2007 i am removing the motor and cannot find the inspection cover? I am amazed at how tight stuff is packed into/under the engine compartment. i have done both RWD and FWD trans swaps before but this northstar motor is really a pain. is this how the GM engineers reduced NVH? by having countless brackets and braces?
