I have been told that it is possible to install the flywheel without the pins and get it right, but with the pins you always get it right.
Maybe someone else can come in on this, but I think the answer to your question is "Yes", you can get it on wrong without the pins.
Agreed. And any "pro" mechanic that does that should have his wrenches repossessed. :mad: The pins are ther mainly for shear load transfer, the bolts are set up strictly for tension application.
