[Shotimes] Broken motor mount bolts?

[Bruce Malachuk]

Anyone break the bolts that attach the front motor mount to the bracket on
the motor? I just found out that my nice near solid mount in concert with my
Kirk'd rear mount and reinforced tranny mount have lead to a broken pair of
moto mount bolts. Granted the rear Kirk'd mount have been going for a while
and I have a new mount to put in, but I found that the bolts were sheared
off kinda odd.
 
Has anyone ever thought of drilling the holes larger and getting a bigger
bolt? If I were have to replace it with a hardware store bolt what grade
should I be looking at? I was under the impression that 10.9 were strong
when the forces are pulling the bolt but sideways like that I would wonder
if a 10.9 would be more apt to breaking. I don't want to be doing this
again.
 
thanks
