Ok... I've got a 2g GSX, and a couple months ago, did a 6-bolt swap on it. The question... Only 3 bellhousing bolts go in (minus the starter mounting bolts). There is no place for the bolt closest to the firewall (opposite the one close to the front with the dowlpin) to go in in the tranny. How do people get around this?
 
There is a bolt hole. It threads from the engine side through the rear dowel into the tranny. You get to it from over where the transfer case would be. In stock form, it is I believe an M8x1.25 (Off the top of my head, may be wrong) while the rest thread into the block and are M10's.
