Clutch pressure plate bolts

Hi All,

What are the reccomendations for the 6 bolts that secure the pressure plate to the fly wheel?

I bought a set of 'pressure plate bolts' from v8tuner and they were just 8.8 grade(or the imperial equivalent 'S' i think).

The flywheel/crank bolts were ARP specials though..

There are usually some locating dowles for the pressure plate, these take a lot of the shock load, but as always the better the bolt the better the safety margin.
