I can't remember exactly but I was thinking those button head bolts were used because of a clearance issue with the rack or something? As for the threads, once tightened the sleeve should never move meaning no wear on the bolt but agree a longer shoulder would be better. My biggest concern would be the button head itself, the Allen wrench socket creates a very minimal amount of metal holding the head to the bolt, often in catalogs you'll see them not recommended for structural use. Seldomly do you ever get top quality hardware with any kit.... my Quicktime bellhousing came with socket head bolts with a very sloppy thread fit.. trash canned!!
I find no fault in any of that logic and love the progress you've made. Lots of really good headway there.
What do you think on ETA to final assembly? I know you've gotten a ton done!
