I don't know if the longer bolts will contact anything. The short ones are there for a reason. I would think that they would be a good grade of bolts considering what they do. Are you sure you are using the correct size wrench/socket?? Sometimes an eight point socket will strip bolts/nuts with a decent amount of torque. You may wanna try a 6 point if your not already. JMO.

i used ace hardware grade 8 bolts for everything except the flywheel. and BTW i am pretty sure the flywheel used 9/16. pay the $10 for the ARP flywheel bolts. they go on so much easier because they are a 12point design. i think the ARPs took an 11/16 socket.
