Sure it is a 208 and not a 205?. AND most 208s and 241s just used bolts (3/8-16x1.25). I usually just put one stud in at the 12 o'clock position for 3 reasons, it helps when aligning the unit, helps hold the gasket in place and also the 12o'clock bolt is a real pain to tighten. Easier to spin a nut on first.
