Default Tranny mounting bracket bolt hole DAMAGED!!!!!!!!

can you fix this? how bad is this? would it be safe to run with only 2 bolts?

THANKS

the pics dont work, but if youe talking about where the torque mount bolts into the tranny; then get it welded, did it to my ls tranny since 2 of the sides of the bolt holes broke off and have had no problems since then.

Use 2 bolts, be risky

Unless your stompin 500whp, 2 bolts is fine, but thats just my $ .03

That can def be fixed by a machine or engine shop. Have them just fill it with weld then drill and retap it.

But I think 2 bolts will hold just fine. And if it doesnt, you can have those drill and retapped too! hah
