Hi all,

Thanks for the replies. To tell you the truth, I never thought about stainless bolts. I was really stuck on dupllicating what the factory installed... I used all stainless fasteners on the engine though - bought them as a kit from a supplier that I don't recall right now.
I'm pretty sure I'm going the stainless route on the sheetmetal fasteners. It takes care of a multitude of issues with painted bolts for sure!

Thanks again,
