You will want to take a center punch to that edge and put a dimple on that edge and into the metal. If you want to feel really safe. Put another punch mark 180 degrees from it. This will keep the screws from backing out and loosening.
Thanks for the suggestion, Rusty. I planned to used some blue loctite and torque down to 11ish lbs, I assume that's not an issue? Does the dimple work by deforming the head of the screw just enough to lock it in place?

I don't want to be that new guy who over posts but I plan to throw some pictures up today to confirm my chain is aligned with the markings correctly before I pull it off. I have been hand turning this thing forever and havent gotten close yet. I'm tempted to mark things where they are now and just remove it.
