The holes are staggered. All 6 bolts will go in when they are all lined up.

I was the third answer. That is my ending point for replying...

I have seen 10 responses in a row saying that all 347's burn oil...

Does that make it right?

There was one guy on here...I think AOD08 or something like that, he was trying to put his flex plate on....couldn't get it to line up so he oblonged a couple holes. He couldn't figure out why he had a bad vibration
