If they're the same ones I remember, you'll notice holes in the frame-facing side of the blocks that correspond to the cone-shaped plugs that are inserted into the seat pan....

Get yourself a "T" handled allen wrench that fits easily inside the hole in the block. You want a *DULL* end on the allen. If you press on the wrench handle, you'll see the cone-shaped plug lengthen and actually *shrink* in diameter as you press the wrench further into the hole.

Place the tips of the cones into the holes in the seat pan. Insert the wrench in the hole in the block. Press evenly. The cone should pop into the hole and the shoulder of the plug will seat against the seat pan.

Hope that helps...
