DSE sent SS fasteners with my solid body mounts. Your thoughts?

Some how I missed your response. No nothing structural, unless you consider the door, hood and trunk hinges in that catagory.

You're fine. I believe Carl is referencing SS bolts found at your local hardware store. They generally have a pretty low UTS, about as strong as a Grade 2 bolt. The below link shows what is typically found at hardware stores, 70ksi tensile strength....

ARP, DSE body bolts, etc... are VERY strong. See the link below for McMaster-Carr 12-point stainless cap screws with 170ksi tensile strength.

Link to ARP's stainless explanation (also 170ksi tensile strength)
