Thanks all. I got it squared away. I squirted some locktite on the bolts
(like Frank said), torqued 'em down (can't believe only 40 ft lbs!) then
used a slide hammer to pull the tabs up and hammered 'em home with a punch.
Pressure plate and disc are bolted up and ready for the trans then thrower'
in the Sprite tomorrow. After the week I've had I'm takin' a break tonight!

Get them close with pliers, them a hammer and screwdriver to fold them
tight over a flat on the bolt.
