If you're using a girdle with load bolts that contact the center of the cap, you'll be fine with the stock bolts. And as far as any significant advantage of an 8.8 over an 8-1/4 on a street only operated vehicle is nil. I've beaten on the stock C clip 8-1/4 axles in several trucks (doing truck stuff with tree cutting) and have broken more drive lines than I have 8-1/4 axles that the drive lines were connected to.
