then use a standard size dude, i was trying to help you. If metric does not work then use standard sizes. Or go to Sears and buy the stripped or rounded off socket remover and use it cause if that doesn't take it out then you my friend are FUUUUCCCCCKKKKEEEED

LOL, yeah i am an ass, i don't care i just have fun listening to people that apparently have no common sense. You are a very smart kid i am sure, but book smart i am sure and if a stupid gear head like me were there i am sure i would have the thing out with a socket in a matter of 2 seconds, cause there is not any damn bolts made that don't have a socket to fit them. I am not saying you didn't try everything, i am saying you probrably don't have the size in your tool set that actually fits it.

I'm more common sense and tool smart than anything man. I've worked at a mustang shop for about 6 months, go back to work for em again this summer... Mueller Automotive and Performance.

IDK wat to tell you... you'll have you opinion about me, but i could care less what some person on the other end of a keyboard thinks about me.

Nope not true...found out the hard way on that one. The bolts that hold the torque converter on the 4R70W are standard....i've pretty much taken apart most of the car, and those are the only 5 bolts i have found that are standard, everything else is metric.

If your COP screws are factory, then yes they are 7mm. Even if someone really torqued them down, just grab a good set of vice grips and go to town. Just make sure you go by a ford parts department and get the proper screws when you put them back in.

Just remember a big rule...righty tighty, left loosey....lmao sorry i had to say it.
