Replacing corroded, disc to bell bolts?
I've had a set of Godspeed disc fitted to the car for a few years now and the original hex bolts that connect the disc to the bell are corroding and looking a bit naff so I'm planning on replacing with stainless versions.
I've mailed Ian at Godspeed requesting info in torque setting and size of bolts, he replied saying that Stainless Steel bolts are softer and therefore I'd need to get the torque settings from the bolt supplier.
So can anyone suggest a supplier of M6 x 20mm bolts and nuts and washers alongs with torque info.
I've taken a look at Screwfix and Toolstations website but there's not much info.
Any Ideas?

You could get a set of AP bolts, below is the AP parts list copied from their website. AP stockists should be able to source these, try Alyn. Actually even if the below is no help you could still ask him.
Disc Mounting - Bolted
For lower duty applications and on smaller discs a bolted mounting is sometimes preferred for strength and simplicity, especially for off-road applications (e.g. Rallies) where debris may clog a floating mechanism leading to run-out and disc vibration.
Stiff flat bells should be avoided with a bolted mounting.
• Standard AP Racing disc mounting hole size is 6.40 / 6.45mm diameter.
• Disc to mounting bell Tightening Torque 14.0Nm (10.5 lbs ft).
• AP Racing offer a range of bolts, nuts and washers to suit.
CP2494-116 0.25" UNF x 0.875"
(22.22mm long, plain section 11mm, full thread 9mm).
CP2494-331 0.25" UNF x 1.062"
(27.0mm long, plain section 9mm, full thread 16mm).
CP2494-718 0.25" UNF x 1.00"
(25.4mm long, plain section 14mm, full thread 9mm).
CP2494-117 0.25" UNF Nut 7.3mm height
CP2494-1305 0.25" Stainless Steel Washer, 0.9mm thick.
• These are also available in 8 and 12 bolt wheel sets.
CP2494-24 0.25" x 0.875" 8 bolt kit.
CP2494-6 0.25" x 0.875" 12 bolt kit.
