Want your guys opinions..

While installing my c4 i somehow happened to strip my trans bolt above my starter. I have the rest (6) tqd down to spec (35 ftlbs). Do you guys think i should take the trans back out and helicoil it or do what i was thinking and just wait till the next time i have my trans out to do it?

Im not making huge power...on spray should be 500+ ftlbs of tq with 4.30s trans has a 38-4200 stall and brake

Let'r ride as is.

A lot of people have left out the top two bolts on the bellhousing for ease of maintenance.
