Engine mounts - 996 options...

The 125mm were ok, they finish flush or maybe 1 thread short. I would rather use high tensile 10.9 and be 1 thread short than the 8.8 and be 3 threads over. :wink:
 
I thought about stainless replacement fixings but asside from the lower tensile rating ( I also expect aftermarket high tensile engineering bolts probably have better corrosion resistance than OE pork stuff also), the jumbo washer appears to be concave and I would be unhappy with swapping it for an equivalent stainless washer which is flat, as I expect the washer curve is to 'catch' the deflection of the rubber.

I think I will use the cheese pork bolts and coat it all in ACF-50 instead..
