Loose TC bolts?

If you look closely at the pictures, you can see the area of missing thread and remaining undamaged thread, and how little the bolts go into the converter. I suspect the material on the back of the converter is much softer in hardness, than the material used on a stock torqueconverter. This is probably why you read on line (I am assuming you read this) to use "red" locktite. I suspect others have experienced the same problem."

Here's what he did....HJ

"After reviewing the bolts that sun cost provided and observing the depth and threads in the converter, I'm convinced this is faulty by design, or at least can be improved.
I spoke to someone at sun coast, explaining what happened and asked if it was alright to re drill 4 new holes rather than trying to helicoil the existing damaged holes. They assured me that it was ok. We decided to use a larger diameter bolt. The original is a fine thread 1/4"? bolt, and the depth did not go deep enough into the converter. The holes in the flywheel from the factory are much larger. I had 4 3/8 fine threaded holes machined onto the converter. I attached some pictures so you can get a idea of the damaged and improved holes. We machined the bolts to get maximum depth into the converter, but sill have plenty of clearance as not to bottom out (this step is important).
