I have searched and scoured what feels like the deep bowls of all things 996, I found one for the boxster and one for a 996 but they only discuss 7 of the 8 transmission bolts. I'm hoping this is an easy one, does anyone have a diagram showing the bolt size and hole of all 8 bolts on the transmission?

 

Upon removing the transmission my creeper bumped my bolts and I'm not sure which ones goes where.

 

Thank you in advance for saving me from myself.

The Boxster and 996 bolt layouts are essentially the same, with the exception that some Boxsters left out one bolt from the factory.

You also just discovered why we suggest DIY projects like this number the bolts with a silver marker before removing them.............................

That diagram looks like my trans but it says bolt C has a washer, and none of my bolts had a washer upon removal......

 

upon removal I had them all perfectly set aside, unfortunately a silver marker and some tape would have saved me the headache of bumping them; live and learn.

Again, the bolts and washers/lack of washers varies with 986/996 and model years; Porsche is famous for changing bolt styles without notice.  Just put em back as you found them.......

Excellent - thank you - the bolt specs are spot on - confirmed with my 996 M96 03 that is out - prep for engine stand yoke install.
