arp flywheel bolts

Post by Seight-V8 »

hello all,

can anyone confirm the sizes of the ARP flywheel bolts for the rover v8?

bolt head size & socket required

length & thread.

The ones I have don't have much space for the socket between the bolt & the crank shaft where the spigot bearing goes.....

Not sure if the head sizes on the bolts I have a correct.

cheers

scott

sorted already, I've got the wrong ARP flywheel bolts....

I have 200-2802 bolts which are 7/16-20 1ins long 3/4 socket....

but should have

200-2807 bolts which are 7/16-20 1ins long 5/8 socket....

time to buy some new ones.

Mine were really tight,I had to turn a socket down to get them to fit,
(I think that makes sense !)

Cheers looks like an option to me.

Will get a new 3/4 socket and get it reduced at work to make it fit.

I just ground away the outside of the socket. Not as pretty as doing it on a lathe but it got me out of trouble on a Saturday afternoon.
