Default Rear flywheel to motor mount bolt question

Do the bolts used to secure the rear motor mounts to the flywheel housing use lock washers and security wire, or are the bolts wired in together alone??

Thanks!!

I just clean, lock-tite, install, torque and lace them.



I'm thinking the last time I had this monster apart I may have used flat washers. It was more than an hour ago so I don't recall. I'll let you know if/when I ever take it back apart.

let's see now, lock washer, safety wire and lock-tite. That's like wearing suspenders, and a belt on bib overalls.
