Good idea sir, I will have to check that out. Forgot to mention I checked the ATF the other night and it was low, so I added about 1/2qt of a product that said it included a stop leak component. Started it this morning and there's no noise, and last night it was fine driving 20mi there and 20...

Update: SUCCESS!!! Found out that legit end mills are a bit pricey, tried left hand drill bits, cussed a bit, prayed a bit, found out that Dremel makes a bit that is cylindrical and has cutting flutes in the blunt tip and in the sides, and used it to get the busted bolt out. In the end I...

That's been bugging me too.

Anyone know if the stud that the starter support bracket fastens to on the starter end is replaceable? I was looking at this thread because I discovered the bracket-to-block bolt was gone and the bracket was hanging by the support stud on the starter. Warthog's numbers helped me find a...
