Default Motor Mount Bolts

Search turned up a sea of unrelated threads/posts, figured I'd post up to see what the consensus is. What are you guys using for motor mount bolts when switching to after market mounts or replacing the motor etc. Are you reusing the stockers or are the TTY bolts? I'd really like to switch to an ARP or similar. So let me know what you're using.

I'm not sure which motor mount bolts you're speaking of, [either the long bolts that retain each mount to its pedestal or the 8 bolts (4 on each side) that hold the clamshell to the block] but I can give you the same answer no matter which...

I simply reused the stock bolts. I don't believe any of them are Torque to Yeild.

Thanks, I was talking about the ones that hold the clamshell to the block.
