Hi volks,

I've got an auto trans with the cast iron bell-housing.  To make my new
2.0L I4 engine fit, I've got to convert one of the 4 holes that mounts
the trans to the block to a from a tapped hole to a thru hole since the
new block has a stud in that location.

I'm pretty sure I could just drill the threads out and the remaining 1/8
inch of material to make the hole, but I think I'll also have to cut a
small hole for the nut which will attach to the stud.  Am I crazy to do
this myself?  Will a machine shop do this work with the entire trans
together?

Thanks
