So I went to remove the transmission and found only three bell housing bolts holding the damn thing together. Also the engine and transmission weren't even lined up properly. Ugh!!!

Lol! When you said it was done on a "budget" it didn't think that the budget didn't include bolts! Oh well bolts are cheap and the motor was coming out anyway. I guess I can look at like he saved me some time by not putting all the bolts in.Comment

Yes it was. Held on by the headers and the hanger in the rear was a thick piece of rubber with a wood screw threw it.
