FLYWHEEL BOLTS

Cautionary advice: The LT5 crankshaft flywheel hub is blind tapped. Make sure the under head length is not too long or the bolt can "bottom out" before the full clamping force is applied to the flywheel.

Before installing the flywheel, I recommend:
1.cleaning the tapped hole out thoroughly to remove contaminants
2. install the new flywheel bolt by hand until it stops. Do not oil the threads.
3. measure the space under the bolt head/washer & crankshaft insure that the space is at minimum, 0.100" less than the flywheel thickness.
4. Use Loctite 262 or equivalent when installing the flywheel

We stock ARP flywheel bots and sell them by the set of 8. They are properly sized for the 3 different aluminum flywheels that we stock for the LT5. Offhand, I am not sure how our aluminum flywheel flange thickness compares with other brands.

You will note that hardened washers are furnished with the bolts and are recommended for aluminum flywheels.
