Whats up everyone, I bought a s14 trans for my project but it is missing the bolts that hold the transmission to the bell housing. I have done a good bit of searching and have been un able to find any info. Any help would be much appreciated! (s14 ka 5 speed trans)

They are 14mil socket head with a "7" stamped on it. There are 4 different lengths. The shortest are on the 2 plates that tie the engine to the tranny on the bottom. There are 4 for each side. The next size up goes around to the left and top. The 2 for the starter are 2 different lengths. If the engine is in the car you will need a long extension a universal and 14mill socket. As you tighten the tyranny to the engine, periodically rotate the crank to make sure it isn't binding up.

Those are also stamped 7 and have 12 mill size socket heads. Unlike GM TRANYS the " manual bell housing is half of the Tranny.

And the grip length is 3 inches.

Go to a junkyard an look around for a 240sx or frontier truck. You might get lucky. 12 mil head, 3 inch length, and 7 size brass bolt.
