At the risk of being argumentative, and I humbly apologize for sounding so, don't trust your motor's livelihood (and your wallet's) to another's opinion. Just cuz they got the size/length/pitch right does NOT mean they're *application-specific*. You can buy SS bolt kits all day long @ eBay/amazon/etc., but the bottom line is it's YOUR motor, and your wallet. If you bought TRUE graded SS bolts, then- given the pic you posted- you spent about $2.00-4.00 per bolt.
At the risk of sounding prideful~ I've been doing this for well more than twice your age~ and the true sign of wisdom is the ability to learn from mistakes that are not your own. You don't have to trust me, but you shouldn't trust ANYBODY with your own wellbeing. Nobody will take better care of you~ than YOU.
Peace~
Scott
