Stainless Steel motor mount through bolts?

I like all new hardware, especially if its stainless steel. Anyway i got some of these from summit and they are about 1" too short...kinda pissed about that.

Other then just new bolts from the dealer anyone else know where to get some new stainless steel bolts made for the mount mounts?

Re: Stainless Steel motor mount through bolts?

Don't forget about the hardness rating. I believe that 10.9 is the stock rating. Some stainless comes in grade 5 and other stainless comes in grade 8. I had to go to a specialty bolt store to get new motor mount through bolts. Even then all I could get was gold washed zinc grade 8 bolts.
