It might be cheap insurance to buy new ones; altho honestly when did my trans swap, I re-used the convertor-to-flywheel bolts. Make sure you get the same strength bolts; I think they're a metric 10.9?

ive reused old ones without a problem, but it wouldnt hurt to get a set of new ones to be on the save side, and potentially save some work down the road.. glad to see your still around..
