whats the location of the bolt? and what did you do, strip it? if its one of the top ones, do this:

reinstall and hand tighten all the bolts
remove the top bolts FIRST and then work your way down, going from side to side.

if its the top bellhousing bolt thats stripped, chances are you will have to remove the intake manifold to get better access to it to try to get a wrench on it (closed end) or any kind of tool to remove stripped bolts.
