I see that AA does not carry them, I don't see them on the Pelican site either. I know the size, but can't find bolts that size, except grade 8.8.

Nice, and they sell pieces vs. cases. No minimum qty either, but $6 to ship $1.2 worth of bolts. I will keep them in mind.

Thanks

On that page, it clearly states pressure plate bolt, but the accompanying diagram shows a muffler bracket bolt. Thought I'd mention this so you make sure you're getting the right bolt.

You beat me to it. Click the one under that and it shows some other car's flywheel.... I would call that a fly ring.

Clark , of all the things George has , he does have these bolts (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif) . Gotta look in the right sections of the catalog, I got mine form him a few years ago , also get the o-ring seal for the rear of the fltwheel as well as the washer/plate that goes under the bolts , along with the pilot bearing. They have low profile heads on them to clear the clutch disc . You get em from who ever , but AA does have them , heck use the 1-800 number ...

I'll bet they have them at Ace hardware.

Or:
https://www.belmetric.com/hex-bolts-class-1...tags3pvvco5vug0

They dont need to be as strong as you would think.
They are not under that much strain and it is in shear.
(however I am sure someone will have a story about breaking them before).

Because it's a push type clutch, the bolts aren't holding much pressure. And they're not really holding any shear pressure. I don't know for sure what the spec is, but from what I see in the PET, they look like standard 8.8 bolts.
