Of course a 12.9 bolt will have sufficient shear strength to do the job.
But this isn't about just a matter of obtaining a piece of metal with a thread on.

As can be seen from the picture in the link I posted the OEM flywheel bolts have a flanged head that don't require a washer to fit. They also have a plain shank offering a better location through the flywheel.

That is a different thing to a common or garden high tensile bolt from Joe Blogs that will most probably be just a regular plain hexagon headed set screw that should be fitted with a washer. Not just any old plain washer, but a hardened washer.

In which case a flywheel bolt really isn't just a bolt like any other.

Just saying :thumb:


:thumb: Completly agree, I forget that I deal with stuff like this on a daily basis, so its just second nature to me!
