I agree with you. When I attempted to pull my 3 speed manual, I could not see or reach most of the top BH to engine bolts, 273 V8. After cutting the transmission tunnel (on my way to converting from a 3 speed manual to a 4 speed manual), I was able to loosen the four BH to gearbox body bolts. I removed the gearbox from under, and the BH with the motor from the top.
