Re: what bolts to use
Surprise, stainless will corrode/sieze/break worse than steel. Reason: It is a more dis-similar metal than the aluminum it is in. The dis-similar metals is what causes the corrosion. The stainless itself is not what corrodes, of course, but the aluminum around it. On the other hand, yes a steel bolt will rust. All of the above is why the factory uses stainless where it is easy to see, but uses steel where it is hidden under the hood. Usually. There are exceptions, for instance the bolts holding the powerhead on. Usually steel, at least they are easier to get out than if they had used stainless.
