just pulled my tranny believe the only way to get to the top bolts is to drop the back of the tranny down cant see any other way but who knows there might be and as far as the top bell-housing bolts believe they are a reverse torq socket the size is E-12 hope that helps
also forgot to add had a 3 foot extension too hey its best to stay far from your work lol
