I am having trouble getting the engine out of my IH 500E. I have removed all the bolts I can find, removed the front engine mount, but the engine will not move. Are there some bolts hidden somewhere behind the bellhousing or in the bellhousing that I don't see? Any ideas or suggestions would be appreciated.
 
Two bolts at the top of the bellhousing assuming the bellhousing is the same as a tractor. They are about 6-7 inches long and go through the bellhousing to the block. I missed those the first time I split a tractor thinking there was no way they were that long and holding to the block.
 
If the tractor is power shift, you should be separating the bell housing from the transmission. The bell housing has hooks that slide on the frame, and the assembly slides out like a drawer. Also easier to put back together this way.
