How many transmission to engine bolts are there on a 1998 suburban 350 vortex?

There's no single definitive answer to how many transmission-to-engine bolts are on a 1998 Suburban 350 with the Vortex engine (4.3L V6). The number can vary slightly depending on the specific transmission used (e.g., 4L60E, others). Also, some bolts might be considered secondary (e.g., torque converter bolts) and not always counted in the main transmission-to-engine bolt count.

To know for certain, you'll need to:

* Consult a repair manual: A factory service manual specific to your 1998 Suburban 350 with the 4.3L V6 will give the precise number.

* Look at the transmission and engine: With the transmission partially removed or visible from underneath, you can count the bolts yourself.

Expect to find somewhere between 6 and 12 bolts. It's less likely to be outside that range. But always refer to a reliable source for the correct information before performing any work on your vehicle.
