OK, to add to my list of dumb questions due to my lack of planning and poor documentation here's another. There are four holes in the lower trans shield. The one on the upper right was obvious (I think). There are two others in the middle and a stud on the lower left. I'm thinking the two middle ones should have a bolt before the trans is bolted to the engine block or do these two have any other function ? When I first removed this engine last year the lower shield just fell out on to the floor telling me that someone forgot to bolt the thing in when I had some work done back in the mid 80s. Explains some of the intermittent rattling sounds that I heard from the rear while driving for the last 30 years. And what is the small stud for ? Thanks for all of your patience and help through this process. I'm hoping to be driving the car before the snow flies.
