[Dragsinger]

A new ATI damper installed on 496 BBC. Damper fits tight on the crank and damper retainer bolt is tight.

There are no indications of any problems.

However, the damper assembly bolts are all loose, one bolt completely out laying in the engine catch pan.

Anyone have this happen? Loctite the bolt and watch closely? Other suggestions?

PS, engine feels smooth. There is no usual feel or vibration.
