I know I'm not being helpful but I haven't seen anyone discuss it before.

While waiting here you might also ask in the C6 Forced Induction Forum since they seem to be associated with high HP applications. Good luck.

There are different plate thicknesses.

In my case, the OEM bolts were re-used and have never loosened or fallen out.
Installed many years ago.

How much of the bolt threaded in the crank? I have the longest Arp bolts and they stick out .520 and the plate is .360 thick at the bolt area.
