What happens here

The old transmission mount is inspected, revealing it to be half-ripped. A dowel pin from the old transmission is found stuck in the engine's bell housing. Using a hammer and a pry bar, the dowel pin is carefully extracted. The new transmission is then positioned underneath the Monte Carlo, which is lowered on the lift to aid in initial alignment.

Goal: Clear the engine bell housing and inspect parts for correct transmission mating.
