Customer bought the new Pro Torque starter but it didnt come with bolts, went to same dealer and asked for starter bolts for a ProTorque .Recieved Quicksilver 10-805343 2 .
A tiny bit too long.Had to add a drive mounting washer to eack bolt to actually get the bolts tight otherwise loose bolts break or break the engine casting

Been many discussions here lately of starter bolts. I measured the PMG starter and its 3 3/16 wide. ARP and Dorman sell 3 5/8 long starter bolts

Do you know how long the ones you got where?
Looking up 10-805343 it shows 6 inch long and NLA at BAM

Ayuh,.... I didn't measure the ones I did,.... maybe today I'll pull one out for the purpose,.....
I took off a tired big motor, staggered pattern starter, 'n put a p/m starter back on,....
While grindin' the ends off the bolts moves the knurling up, it's still well within where it's gotta be,....
