Crank pulley bolts

[rotorhead22]

So I bought a Mr Gasket underdrive pulley set for my 89 notch. I was in the process of upgrading the alternator to a 3G so a deal on EBAY caught my eye. Well the description was 100% accurate except that apparently there are some bolts with these pulleys that weren't included for the crank pulley because the stock bolts are too close to the pulley inner wall and wont accept a standard socket. Can I use Allen Head bolts with washers or is there another alternative?

Usually that's what they include allen head bolts

Yup, underdrives are usually supplied with allen head bolts and washers

Thanks for the replies. I spent about six minutes blindly trying to get that socket on before I realized what was up. My favorite place Ace Hardware had just the right ones

OOOOPS!!! the crank pully bolts are grade 8 high strength bolts. You need so grade 8 or better Allen head cap screws.
