I'd also nominate you for a Guinness record.But seriously, just run the bellhousing bolts down with the 1/2 ratchet and put them pretty tight (not with a breaker and cheater). I've never had one come loose, but blue locktite will be peace of mind (not red). It's ok to use red on driveshaft bolts and is a requirement on wheel bearing nuts, but literally nothing else in the car should be getting red loctite. Maybe brake claiper to spindle bolts if you're suspecting the bolt threads are too worn. But rest assured, the only way you'll ever remove a red bolt is with a direct application of a propane torch for at least 15 seconds.</blockquote>
