It's temporarily installed to prevent the gear preload from unloading. You remove the bolt after installing the camshafts.

ok so adding the bolts was rather easy;

I started by marking some orentation marks between the trans and that cradle mount (When the engine and trans were mated), took a set of calipers and...

90% of the time, this is the culprit. worn strut mount bearings. jack the car up so the front wheel is off the ground and try to move it.

Well there Simon, get the front of that car of yours up on jackstands, grab onto the wheel and shake hard. Sideways and up and down.
Sideways will indicate if bearings are gone.

Hook the Negitive to a good clean metal part on the engine or trans (Engine hanger is usually good) and hook the positive straight to the stud on the starter that the batter cable hooks to... This is...

Most likely you have a bad (or corroded) contact in the dimmer switch... The way that Toyota has the lights wired, when the relay is on, there is always power flowing through the lowbeam circuit but...

I don't find the S54's ratios suitable for the 3VZ/1MZ unless it's solely a track car, but even then, the low top speed will handicap you on a track with long straights.

The E153's axles will bust...

The only sensors the PCM uses when the vehicle is in open loop are the coolant sensor & 02 sensor. If you want to keep it in open loop, you should look for a resistance/voltage chart for the coolant...
