Yes they do look exactly like that... This is what I was doing before with the flat washer.



But I ended up talking to some experienced guys from town and they said the same thing, for the PP to be flush against the flywheel. I took off the PP and clutch to examine the flywheel bolt holes more closely. It ends up that the threads in the flywheel holes don't start until approximately a quarter of the way thru the flywheel... basically the length of the shoulder. So I mounted everything back together and made it flush...

I got some help from a couple buddies and we attached the tranny and put it all in the truck!
