Default Stage 8 cv joint locking fasteners question

Hi, what is the model of the stage 8 bolts cv joint locking fasteners ? I have a Porsche 944 S2 I bought the
STG-8324 CV bolts but they are too long or the thickness of the screw after the thread might be too fat and what is causing the bolt not to fit. I bought them off of summit racing.com

These are supposed to be the right bolt but I would like to get them somewhere else. If possible.
https://www.lindseyracing.com/LR/Por...LB-085024.html. These bolts say 8mm x 1.25 x 50mm bolts, the bolt I bought has the same measurements but it still doesn't fit.

Lindsey Racing and Ideola's Garage both sell the Stage 8 CV bolts for the 944 series cars, they are the STG-8324 8mm x 1.25 x 50mm.
I installed a set in my 944 turbo two years ago after rebuilding the CV joints and didn't have any trouble installing them and can confirm by the packaging they are the STG-8324.

If they are too long, add a hardened washer to the stack, i had to do this on my 924S when they first came out as the flange thickness on the outer hub was a little different apparently. No harm in doing it as long as its a hardened washer, the locks will still work perfectly and the wheel will be able to spin.
