Default ARP bolts for LS7 clutch?

So the threads I've read recently suggest ARP pressure plate and flywheel bolts for this install, but I remember seeing more than one where someone had problems with this combo.

I've ordered the Luk clutch kit and flywheel including C6 slave (PP and fly being balanced), Tick adapter line and remote bleeder, the Monster billet support bearing and that's it. Should I go ahead and get the ARP bolts too or is it going to give me issues?

ARP bolts work perfect with the LS7 flywheel and pressure plate.

ARP 1342201 and ARP 3302802

Use their assembly lube between head of botl and flywheel surface and torque to their recommendation. It's slightly higher because of the grease.

Arp for the flywheel with their lube and​ specs.. and stock for the pressure plate here... No need to spend the money for the PP bolts for arp... That's my opinion though..

This is what Luke at Lindsey Cadillac recommends, so a good bet. I already spent the $15 for the PP bolts so I can live with the expense. Thanks!!
