Cracked Cylinder Repair: Remove the Bell HousingDOUG JENKINS: Hi. I'm Doug. I work with 20 great guys in St. Louis at Doug Jenkins Custom Hot Rods, and we're going to do some work for you today on Expert Village. The next activity is removing the bell housing bolts. There is a series of six or eight bolts that hold the transmission to the engine. They're really easy to get to when you have the intake off. Normally, when you pull an engine, you don't have the intake removed like we do here in one of the heads. So this is a really easy job this time. Sometimes that job can take quite a bit of time in and of itself. The bell housing is made of aluminum; the engine is made of cast iron. The bolts go through the transmission into the block. They never break off. They're a pretty easy bolt to get loose once you do get them--get a wrench on it. Sometimes it's hard to get a wrench on them, but it's kind of the main way the engine is held in the car. As we pull the engine out, we have to support the transmission now that it doesn't have the engine attached to it. But we'll show that as it comes up.
