T56 Flywheel bolts?

Anything special about them? I just used generic grade 8's when I bolted the T5 in (flywheel-to-crank and pressure plate-to-flywheel, and never had a problem.

Yes, the bolts are different. They have a tapered shank that centers the pressure plate on the flywheel. The T56 does not use dowel pins to align the pressure plate. That is why you must use the bolts designed for that application. You can order them from the dealer.

As far as I know, ARP does not sell the correct bolts for the T56 application yet. You will need to order them from the dealer.

Myself as well. I have no bolts, so I needed to know which ones to get. I was just mentioning that I used normal grade 8 bolts for the T5 flywheel/pressure plate.

Then again, the clutch fork on the T5 isn't trying to pull the pressure plate off the flywheel.
