Prevents pressure plate bolt rotation and loosening during engine operation
Essential anti-rotation hardware for Ford Flathead V8 clutch assemblies
Simple mechanical locking design requires no thread locker
Works with standard 5/16" pressure plate bolts
Inexpensive insurance against bolt-loosening failures

Description

Ford Flathead V8 engines demand proper anti-rotation hardware to keep critical fasteners secure under constant vibration and stress. This flywheel bolt lock plate creates mechanical interference between the bolt head and flywheel surface, physically preventing the pressure plate bolts from backing out during operation. It's the kind of small detail that separates a proper build from a ticking time bomb.

While stock 5/16" pressure plate bolts are adequate fasteners, they need a physical locking mechanism to stay tight over thousands of miles. Thread locker alone can't always overcome the relentless vibration of a running engine. This lock plate eliminates that risk entirely by creating a positive mechanical lock that won't relax or break down over time.

Designed specifically for Ford Flathead V8 applications, this lock plate is essential hardware for any Flathead clutch service, rebuild, or transmission swap. At a few dollars per plate, it's cheap insurance against the catastrophic consequences of a loose pressure plate bolt—grab one for every clutch job you do on a Flathead.
