My coupler the holes are .392. The flywheel has cobores that are .375 a difference of. 017 even if the bolts had shoulder it could only be .375 to fit in the cobores on the flywheel. I made some stepped pins for three holes then installed 3 bolts then pulled the pins and installed the other 3 bolts. I will check the alignment when I install the engine.
