WTB: Belhousing bolt (not E12 one)

[Jamison C]

Need a bell housing bolt for a 42RLE. Not the E12 Torx. Davey's sent me bolts for a manual transmission. I have one of the bolts and could get another at ACE but I'd rather keep it factory if I can. TIA.

The 2 bolts at the 9 and 3 oclock position?

Yep those are the ones. Problem is I can’t find any that are 100% thread like the OEM bolt that I have. They have that smooth upper part and it’s too big to fit through the BH.

Weird. I used those exact bolts on my 32rh. Those bolt holes house the locating dowels. The dowels should be the same for all transmissions.

Look for tap bolts. That's what a fully threaded fastener is called.

The bolts from the manual don't fit?
