I am trying to get it back together and I have had it apart for 20 years. I took the flywheel off and at the time I was looking to replace the locking tab plates under the flywheel bolts. Not only did I not find replacements - I lost one of the ones I had. Any ideas where I might locate these little gremlins?
Thanks, Jerry

You could also cross-drill the bolt heads and use aircraft type safety wire to secure the bolts. I'd suggest using the LocTite, along with the correct torque.
