i tear down powerhad.
thera are 6 bolts holdind powerhad to mid section.2 of them are longer.
i'm not sure, but this longer one should go to this side where head is mounted(under of courese)?
meybe some one remember wher this longer one goes?

Use the two longer bolts in the two holes that have a thicker "shoulder" than the others. I think they are on either side of the head, but, there should be a noticeable difference in the bolt shoulder.

well i'm not suure if i did notice difference in wholes on mid section.
i put this longer one in 2 holes under head of powerhead.
i'm afraid it i put this loner ones so i can do some demage in powerhead wall if they are to long.
i put some LOCITE silicone sealant on gasket.in this longer bolts under head of powerhead i could feel some litle resistans while wrenhing but bolts gone in.

The two long bolts are the aft ones, the other 4 short ones go in the sides and forward holes or the powerhead.
