I took this apart today and its was held together just normal nuts and bolts. The center bar is the early expandable type, which will need a bit of heat to get resized to fit the new metal discs and new bolts I got from Greg.

Michael,
There are special shoulder bolts that fasten the stainless steel discs to the coupling flanges. If yours have been changed to plain bolts, you can get the correct ones from Greg Bilpuch. These special bolts serve to keep the discs and the floating shaft accurately centered, for balance and to eliminate misalignment loading on the water pump bearing.

I found Leland Powells web-page, thanks. Mine have been changed to rubber disks must have been part the engine swap the car had in the 1960s.

They should be stainless steel. Pretty sure Leland Powells has them. He's in California, and in the Newsletter and Magazine but I don't have his info handy.
By the way, I call what you found in the oil pan "normal"!

The two rubber disks on the starter motor shaft have perished, anyone got a suggestion of what I can make new ones from?
