    OK. Fine. I give up. I'm not an engineer. Peugeots are better than
    Toyotas.

    Is it good or bad to have more bolts?
     
    Peugeot use 3 bolts to hold the motor onto the trans in the XN* engines.
    Once (emphasis on the once, never wanted to touch the thing again)
    worked on a Triumph 2.5TC. They used 13 bolts to hold the motor to the
    trans. Not only that, but lots of them were nuts and bolts, and they
    were jammed up hard against the firewall.
     
    Speaking as an engineer: if 3 bolts were good enough, but they used 4
    means that they didn't trust their own calculations.....
