nothing wrong with using aluminum bolts....that is not what I am debating. I just think you are fooling yourself if you think aluminum won't seize to aluminum, because it will. you need to use anti-seize on the bolt, or it will seize. and if it does seize......well good luck with that. if you think it is easy to round the head on a steel bolt, try aluminum.
