Yes add another pin, it's SOP.
With 2 pins and 7/16 bolts to clamp it down, the flywheel isn't going anywhere.

Friends,


Long time listener, first time posting. I pulled the 1500 out of my Spitfire #80 and I am in the process of building a 1296. I am staying with my 1500 gearbox and clutch/flywheel so I am at the point of having the race shop (Abacus) machine the bolt holes from 3/8 to 7/16....and the topic of an extra or even three extra dowel pins machined into the flywheel came up. What is everyone's thoughts or even the standard for this? I was thinking at least one additional pin in addition the to the stock one. Thanks in advance!
