Dear FOT,

I had the unfortunate problem of having my aluminum flywheel bolt heads 
worked off by the infamous TR6 crank harmonics at the BRIC last 
weekend. Tried to drill out the bolts for four hours but working in the 
toe box at 97 degrees was too much to overcome ( as well as the hard 
steel). So my question now is what is the recommended fix for this 
problem? I was using ARP socket head cap screws but only with the four 
bolt holes and one pin configuration. Kas' book describes the problem 
but doesn't give a detailed solution for the TR6 flywheel. I'm assuming 
that I should add perhaps two additional bolts and an additional pin. 
Am I close? Thanks for any help.

Allen
