Engine mounting bolts

[luckydog]

I have a Stratos with a 150 EV. I need longer enging mounting bolts. Do they have to be hardened or stainless or anything special? Thanks

yes stainless bolts, I believe grade 8 bolts......

[luckydog]

Thank you. That's what I was told. Now where do you find them?

[ZaraSpooked]

west marine has a selection. That's where I picked some up. Much cheaper than online, oddly.

Sometimes you can find 'em at Lowes or Home Depot.

It's best and probably a lot safer to use the known quality factory bolts as the hardware store ones made in China may not be strong enough if you hit something.
