Could anyone please tell me which way round the flywheel lock tab goes on a pre verto set up?
Also can you use standard washers to space out the clutch straps?

Cheers

That's the back of it in the picture, that flat spot goes against the key washer, and the rounded edge gets knocked up and against the flywheel bolt

I'm with v on this.. Locktite and bin the lock tab they seem to be made of much softer stuff these days

I run a supercharger and I don't care the TB is on the wrong side.

think ill be using lock tight or maby a lock wire type deal where i may drill the lock/key plate on an edge near the bolt to loop the wire threw

i agree anything that could compress and let the flywheel move down the taper is a bad idea
so any way the keeps the bolt from turning with out being under it seems a good idea imo

probably more helpful to ask what type/strength lock-tight you guys are using...

Just use the medium strength Blue Loctite.
