Okay just to show the fine work of House automotive

I am missing the wastegate, the wastegate dump pipe and elbow tie pipe.
the tranny was bolted but the tranny support crossmember was left out?, at first I questioned the reason why, than I realized that they had broken the right side bolt for the tranny support crossmember, this is the first time I see one of this snapped that's a sturdy bolt, any suggestion how to extract it? I have the sears drill extractor set or do I drill it out with a regular drill bit

Lart, thanks so much for your hard work. I know how much of a pain extracting broken bolts can be. I wouldn't be surprised if they had bad intentions towards my car after they found out I'd be pulling my car from their shop. I was fooled by the friendliness of their staff only to find that their techs are just a bunch of incompetents.

Oh good, so you were able to find the leather shifter boot? You guys definitely worked overtime on this car. By the way, I didn't know bibles had 951 specs in the scriptures. Also, the shop should have installed a new tensioner if I'm not mistaken so the one you saw in the box was probably the old one. Thanks again guys, I definitely look forward to seeing her run again.

i didn't see the boot in the boxes but my youngest son found it by the passenger's seat almost underneath and since your carpet is black and poor illumination it was hard to see
