TTY Bolt Alternative
I'm getting ready to do a full fluid change, and need to drop the stiffening plate. I don't want to pay 5 per bolt to replace the TTY bolts on the plate (yeah, I know, its the principal....). So why couldn't I just use standard 10mX55mm bolts high grade 10.9's, with new washers and nuts and just tighten the shit out of them (spec is 41lb + 90deg) and/or use some threadlocker on them to keep them from backing out.

Discuss...
