As you guy's are well aware, I'm a crazy nut and a creative SOB, I gonna throw out an option and call it option number 3... but first let's weigh the other options, we can leave the bolt where it is and maybe grind a little off the head or not, my issue with that is this, to remove the cover you will need to remove the pulley, I don't wanna :shock: , Option number 2 is to use a flathead screw but you will still have the problem with having to remove the pulley, so here's my last idea, relocate the flippen hole 1/2" or so from the pulley on the cover, all you would need to do is get creative, bolt a piece of flat stock to the existing hole inside the covers base where it goes originally and locate and drill and tap out a hole for your new location about 1/2" from the edge of the pulley..It will work I'm sure of it, the covers have already been butcherd so what's one more hole right....See you will draw in the cover and still be able to remove it without removing the pulley..
