Coverter Bolts? Just a quick question here. Im going to be swapping out the stock converter and installing a vigilante 3600. Will the stock coverter bolts work to bolt up the vigilante stall?

they are too long, they will fill like they get tight, but actually bottom out and make horrific noise when you start the car with them installed.
Use the shorter ones, you can pick them up at any auto parts store i believe, i know my local dealer had the shorter ones in stock when i needed them.

Sorry for the bad info,i apologigize. My experience is with the Pro-Torque line of converters and their pads are thick allowing the use of stock fasteners. Especially with small diameter converters you have more room for longer threads. I thaught the vig. converters because of their high quality, would also use similar type pad designs.
