    50 hp Flywheel bolts

    Bought an harmonic balance puller to remove flywheel on a 1988 50 VRO. None of the bolts fit. What size bolts should I use? I read on another post a guy stripped out grade 8 5/16. Is that the size? Are there different threads on grade 8 bolts? 5/16 seems kinda big.

    Jack Plate instalation

    Bought a used Jack Plate tilt trim(Cook Mfg.) No instalatin instuctions. Electrical looks pretty simple. Its not obvious how to attatch my 50 hp Johnson. Dosn't look like it clamps on it like the motor clamps to the transom.
