Sec 6 pg 31 step 6 of engine service manual states to put lock'n seal on bolts if reusing.
Implying acceptable procedure to reuse.
Last time I had one of these off, it was a cracked flex plate on a c6 mated 6.9
New bolts came with the plate, and I compared them with the old ones. The threads were stretched to the point where it looked like a totally different thread pitch.
Curious if anyone has more experience on this, is the stretch normal? or were my old bolts over torqued.
