Default Fasteners???

Hey
got a question? can i change out the present fasteners on my transmission box, the oval one with stainless steel fasteners WITHOUT pulling it apart? can it be done? i know on the primary and other parts i've changed them with no porblems. how about the 8 sided bolts on each side of the spark plugs? they are sort of rusty too. any help would be appreciated. had the bike in hawaii for the last 4 years and watched it slowly rust away.......


thanks!

Not sure about the tranny bolts, but if you are talking about the head bolts No!NO!NO! you might get away with it but you might have to pull the heads for a new head gasket.
