Default Using different bolts to mount the flywheel?

I have seen a picture once somewhere on here of someone that used hex bolts on the flywheel instead of the T55. I need to buy new bolts and A. I hate the Torx design and its a *****, and B. they are pretty expensive to risk jacking them up because of the design.

anyway, would anything be wrong with getting bolts with a different head? and what 'grade' of bolts should I ask for? I am not very familiar with the different grades and strengths and I do not want to get something too weak.

Thanks

i would recomend an ARP bolt made for flywheels (they have diffrent style of wrenching interfaces available). be careful about using conventional bolts grade 5 streches and bends, where a grade 8 sheers.
