[s-cars] sfest or bust... currently bust

Bill,

Make sure those screws get a good coat of loc-tite on the threads. They come 
from the factory with red (strongest) loc-tite on them. You actually have to 
heat them up with a torch to get them loose and run a die over the threads to 
get it off. Don't know how they would not discover this before getting too far 
along with pulling the trans. Disconnecting the driveshafts is one of the 
first steps. They would surely have discovered this before dropping the beast out 
of the car.
