[Fot] Flywheel Fasteners for Steel Flywheels

[Tony Drews]

   Both ARP bolts I mentioned have a shank that eliminates this problem.
   You  still  want to run one or two (I vote for two) dowel pins to help
   locate  the  flywheel.   With the 3/8 ones (and probably the 7/16 ones
   for  that  matter),  you  can  run  8  bolts instead of 4.  That would
   eliminate  the dowels.  I run 2 dowel pins (3/8) and 4 7/16 bolts with
   the big heads on a steel flywheel.

     Be  sure  the  flywheel  bolts  have an un-threaded shank to get at
     least  through  most of the flywheel thickness(without bottoming on
     the  shank  or  the  crank depth when torqued...full threaded bolts
     will machine the crank holes.
