Default Re: Clutch Pressure Plate Bolts

Craig,
The "ARP" bolts (ones on the right) you are showing are not correct either. The shank should not extend any further below the pressure plate that the stock bolts (shown on the left of the bottom photo)

If you cannot get the proper bolt with longer thread engagement, then use the stock ones with the original pressure plate. Just be sure to clean the threads with something like brake cleaner, use blue loctite and do not over-torque.

Stock bolts should also be available for the thinner Valeo replacement pressure plate.
