Default Will this be ok?

This is the drain flange I am going to be using on my greddy kit. Now the bolts that I need to use to hold it on there are much smaller than the holes in the flange will this pose any problems? Here are the pics, let me know what you think!

Yeah, I thought they were plenty long enough. I was just concerned with the width, I dont need leaking down there!

I have no problem getting a bolt with a bigger head or a washer. I just wanted to make sure everything else with this would be ok.

I was wondering if the fitting will shift at all since the bolts are not snug in the holes.

get a metal bushing made that the OD is the same as the ID of the flange holes. the ID is the same as the bolt OD, and the height is the same as the flange is thick, or thinner...

its going to seal fine, make sure its FLAT, and use a nice high quality sealant up in there. I preffer the Indian cheif Gasket sealer by permatex.. It's very high quality.

You seal around the center hole, not the bolt holes. So if its flat, and you use a little high quality sealer, it will seal fine.
