Bolt torque discussion

Off topic but I watch guys use locktite on bolts (often convertor bolts) and not remove the old locktite or clean the oil from them and then complain about locktite not working. Bolts mush be cleaned.
Along those same lines, it's interesting that the flex plate has 6 or 8 bolts to attach it to the crank but only 4 bolts attach the plate to the converter, and those bolts only have 4 or 5 threads. :BangHead:
