loctite flywheel bolts?

I just completed my first clutch install and I realized i forgot to put loctite on the flywheel bolts. Should i pull the transmission again to put the loctite on or will it be fine the way it is. btw the clutch is a ram powergrip hd and a ram billet flywheel. thanks for any help

Me too. I would worry too much about one working even slightly loose and then getting uneven wear on clutch parts.

But if you torques to the correct specs, you might be alright
