I'm pulling an LT1 from a 1996 Z28 with an M6 tranny, I'm pulling it out the top and I need some advice - should I remove the bolts that hold the tranny to the bellhousing or the bolts that hold the bellhousing to the block?

 

It would be alot easier to go out the bottom JMO. Take the ones off the block it aint easy....

 

well, normally I do drop it, but this one is all ready to pull out the top right now except for the tranny bolts - that's the only thing left to do and it's out, just waiting for some input, drinking some water, took the trash out . . . yep . . . . just hanging out waiting for some help

 

I'd support the M6 and unbolt it at the bellhousing.

When I pull my engine, it's coming out the top.

That means the bellhousing is coming off and I'm going to drop the 6 speed out at the same time.

I don't have a ginormous garage so the front wheels have to stay on to roll the car in and out of my tiny garage.

 

it's out - I took the bolts at the bellhousing out

 

I just did this a week ago - got the block free from the bellhousing, but it took me a minute or two to figure out I had to get the clutch fork out of the way to be able to move it forward.

 

I had the same hangup on the clutch fork when I redid the clutch.
Kinda bizarre how it pops in and out on that spring clip

 

I have an auto (which this may be completely useless to you) and what I did was unbolt the tranny from the block, take the intake off, get the top 2 bellhouseing bolts out from the top, then rest from bottom. Like I said I have no idea what the m6 looks like, but hope it helps anyhow.
