[DML] Re: Pressure plate bolts

["Dave Swingle" <swingle@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

They are relatively high-strength bolts. They are not hard to find. 
Otherwise nothing special about them, I actually buy exactly the same 
ones at the local hardware store, still in "hex". I'm not sure why 
they are hex screws other than they may tend to tighten more uniformly 
without washers than regular bolts. 

The torque setting on those is actually very light - maybe 15 ft-lbs 
if I recall correctly - but use loctite on the threads.
