I got my trans, clutch, and flywheel removed before I realized the flywheel bolts are TTY and not supposed to be reused.

What are you guys doing here? They obviously *look* fine but I understand how TTY bolts work and know it's probably not a great idea to reuse. I'd guess most people do, though. Are ARP bolts an acceptable replacement here or are new OEM bolts preferred? Or are you guys reusing them once?

I cant seem to find anything definitive on the pressure plate bolts. I'd assume these are reusable but not sure?

For what it's worth, the Mantic clutch kit comes with ARP flywheel bolts. IMO, it's probably best to replace the flywheel bolts with new ones if your current ones are older.

That being said, if you really can't/don't want to use new bolts, I've reused oem bolts before and I didn't have issues for the few months I ran that way.

Ended up ordering some ARP bolts. It wasn’t so much the cost, but the downtime.
I wanted to have the car put back together last weekend but hopefully I’ll get it buttoned up this weekend.

Thanks
