Looking at these for an axys. Thinking the quickdrive bolts would be stronger than stock and lighter to boot. The clutch bolts give a huge weight savings and wouldnt require rebalancing. Let me know your experiences. Thanks

Not sure the weight loss would be noticeable at all. Strength for sure, but any better than a gr 10.9 or something similar for pennies on the dollar?
These bolts are all on the rotational axis, so don't see how much you'd notice the weight loss, say vs. primary cover bolts, where they're further away from the rotating axis, those would be more noticeable..

Most Titanium has a tensile strength in the 130ksi range. Grade 8 bolts are 150ksi.

I run them your not going to notice much if any difference. It takes a lot of titanium and carbon pieces in the drivetrain to notice a difference. But there quality parts and have held up great.

I run a primary titanium bolt in my Pro, it is stupid light compared to stock. It blows my mind everytime i have it in my hands.
