They are possible with the aid of a really long extension and universal joint on the end. Certainly not easy. Have had many cars through here that had two holes cut in the tunnel already. Best wishes on the project.

If you use a "long" extension be aware of the twist flex in some that will not allow you to transfer the torque to the bolt.
SNAPON does make one that has limited twist that I have used for trans bolt removal. I do have several cheap long ones that when using a standard ratchet handel I can see some twist as I use it.

Hello all, Have removed engine from top of engine bay without trans. Did not remove front grille or radiator housing. Needed to disconnect tailshaft at gearbox, remove rear gearbox mount and sling front with chain at approximate level engine position. Then able to access top gearbox housing bolts with extension bars and universal joint. Engine going to reconditioners on Monday. Mal could you please rotate this for me. Ta.

After looking at the 2 rotated photos I think the 2nd one is the right way!

Seems like it could be a job getting that heavy engine lined back up with the transmission.
