Battery Acid leaked on my bolts
We are in the process of building a ls engine for my buddy's third gen Camaro. Today we finally got all the bottom end pieces and were going to start building it. When we got all the bolts sorted out, we found that two of the main cap bolts had a bunch of white crap all over them. We finally figured out that my kids power wheel battery leaked on to the bolts.
We cleaned the bolts up with a wire wheel, and they look fine with no pitting in the metal. In the process of cleaning them up the black coloring of the bolts came off, and now the parts we cleaned off are silver in color. We were wondering if the bolts can still be used, or do we need to try and find some new ones?
