<VV> Flex Plate bolts - not

[J R Read_HML]

Hi Bill,

Sorry...

Harry said they were caged nuts.

Lonzo used the term "keeper" - as did you.

It has been so long since I've had a PG car, I just don't remember any 
longer and can't find a clear picture of this - in trying to help cfm.

My thinking at this time is that he has the wrong (too long) bolts and that 
is what has ruined the "keepers" or "cages" - whichever.  If cages - can 
they (the cages with loose nuts inside) be welded back on while in the car? 
If keepers attached in some other manner, can they be reattached in some 
manner?  You mention "spring loaded".  I just don't recall that.

OK... NOW -  Main Question at the moment....What is the correct length of 
the bolts???
Anyone?

Based on the CU422 # from the link you provided, there is the statement - 
not a perfect match.  So far as you know, they work JF?

Later, JR
