Well since we're playing pictionary with sentences I'm going to guess that you're working on a car.

Supposed to drive across the state for sister's doctorate commencement, hard to do without a functioning clutch.

Dale Jr doesn't need a cluch.
Dont you know the exact RPMs of each precise coupling point for each gear?
(It is a manual shift meeeeahhhtaaah right?)

Dunno how you are gonna deal with the first gear issue, but here's the basics:

No.

Helicoil instead.

I'd have to drop the engine to get a drill in there.

Right angle drill?

Thread the tap in without drilling?

Sounds like you just need a jump.

I'm working through a gap between the subframe and body, probably can't. I've read FAT has been used to build up crankshaft keyways. Max torque is spec'd as 128ft/lb, which is way above what I need. It's only one of the bolts, out of two.

I'd do that. Especially knowing the other bolt is good. Be gentle snugging it up, then give the stuff time to set and do it's thing before working the clutch.

Might wanna just put the good bolt in, then bleed it, then do the FAT bolt and leave it sit so it doesn't get wiggled before the stuff can set up.

How much does the engine have to drop? You might be able to hook an engine hoist on, undo the motor mounts, and lower the engine enough to work without having to disconnect much shit.

This is one of those things I'd do right, instead of hacking something up that's gonna break in the middle of nowhere.

Agreed.
Can you rent a car or something for a day or two? Bum one off a friend?

Pfft.

If you don't have some extra bolts left over you're not doing it right anyway.
