Default 5.2 Magnum Flexplate play?

Hi all, so I have the flexplate bolted to the crank, but with all the bolts tightened as much as I can without risking damage, the flexplate still wiggles a bit on the crank. I am assuming that this is not supposed to be happening, and I am looking for confirmation of that

I never noticed any play. Did you make sure the crank surface and inside the flexplate was rust free?

Yeah, there shouldn't be any play at all. Bolts too long?
