Hi guys,
getting my gearbox built atm and when i pulled it out noticed there was 1 or 2 bolts missing...
i rang holden but they will not tell me size or threads just part numbers.
ive searched the web but cannot find anything
so does anyone know the sizes, quantity, and thread size of all the bolts for the bellhousing.
cheers

I know the V6 T700 has 6 bolts. The top 4 are the same thread and AFAIK are the same length. The lower 2 are longer and use a nut on the ends but they are both the same aswell. Which are you missing? If its one of the top 4, see if all the ones you have are the same length. If still unsure thread one of the bolts into the missing hole and see when/if it bottoms out. If the gap between the bolt head and the motor is smaller than the thickness of the housing then take the bolt to a bolt shop and get another
When I converted mine I found a bolt missing too. Luckily the T5 I bought came with every bolt so now I have spares lol
EDIT: Or are you after the inspection cover bolts too? Then I dont know![]()

ive only ever seen 4 in all the vn's vp's and vr's ive pulled boxes out of the 2 middle side ones have never been in there LOL
I tune the oldschool way fear on the passengers face and knuckle colour cant go wrong
tabbacco is still my favorite vegetable
haha thats a bit strange. ones that have never had the box out? maybe theyre just a bit hard to get to. I recall the middle one on the passengers side was a bit tricky for some reason. but I think it was the middle drivers side one that was missing on mine lol
according to holden there are 6 the same size up top and 4 down bottom. still have inspection bolts so thats not a drama...
i can get the bolts from work so i might just get a whole heap then ill have them there and ready for when the gearbox gets back....saves waiting or trying to find them halfway through putting it back together
