[Fot] TR4 ARP Flywheel Bolts Question

[jaboruch at netzero.net (Joe Boruch)]

I have been using those BMC A series bolts with ARP chamfered washers for years 
and years in my TR3 and have not had a problem yet.  On tear down they are 
always tight.  I have an aluminum flywheel and would not want to seat the bolt 
directly onto the aluminum.  Joe(B)

???
 
Run a nut or die on the bolt, grind it to the right length, run the nut off and 
it should be square. Be sure to keep it quenched with water or oil to keep it 
cool and go slowly when grinding. Avoid too much heat.Cheers, Bill-----

Flywheel Bolts Question FWIW
 
I just got a set of ARP 206-2802 flywheel bolts from Pegasus for the TR4.  They 
are for ?&euro;&oelig;BMC A series?&euro;?.  The instruction specifically says, 
?&euro;&oelig;DO NOT USE ANY WAHERS?&euro;?, yes, all in caps for emphasis!  
They further state that ARP will not be responsible for failures is washers are 
used.  The instructions also say, ?&euro;&oelig;Make sure there is an adequate 
chamfer under the bolt holes on the flywheel to clear the radius under the head 
of the bolt.?&euro;?  Torque is 55 Ft-Lb with specified lubricants on the 
threads.
 
I?&euro;&trade;ve never had that much good luck grinding the ends of bolts and 
still having it square so as not to start it cocked and runing the female 
threads.  Maybe it?&euro;&trade;s just me?&Yuml;&tilde;&Scaron;

Does anyone have experience using the ARP flywheel bolts sold by Moss and 
others?
I understand that you may have to shorten the bolt or it breaks the rear seal???
Are they supposed to have a washer or not?
