Im trying to remove the transmission cover and am needing to remove the bellcrank pin screws, is there a good way to remove them without tearing them up? Looks like someones already tried with a chisel. Iv tried a large screwdriver and they are on there good

Put penetrating oil like Kroil anywhere you can reach and try a hand impact screwdriver. It works better than a regular impact wrench as when you hit the end with a hammer it automatically keeps the driver fully engaged with the screw. Less likely to tear up the screw slot.

as jim said. proper penetrating oil and a impact driver. the secret is set the thing to turn the right way and try and undo them holding that force as you strike it with the hammer and give it a good hit not a love tap.

Check if there is a nut underneath the case or bracket.
