Yeah, I get some bolts from a specialist warehouse, I don't know what's near you though :?
If you had access to a car like this, would you take it back right away? Neither would I.

Make sure the bolt place knows what you are using them for, I've seen flywheels come loose, the they cit thought the steel car body like a hot knife thought butter...

I can only imagine what they'd do to your (or passengers) ankles.
When results speak for themselves - don't interrupt.
