grade 8 bolts for three bolt cam or shave heads on current bolts a bit?

[FLG]

Because I'm using an after market timing cover my arp bolts are a bit too long and touch the back of the cover. Am I safe using regular grade eight bolts? 

Or is it safe for me to shave the heads a bit off the current bolts?


BTW,

These are the bolts i have

I need about a .160 of clearance, i can take a bit off the inside of the cover as well. I can probably be fine with taking .10 off the heads of the bolts and the rest off the cover, i just dont want to worry about if i am loosing strength by doing this.

440 source cover???

I did mine, and figured since I had a three bolt core, I would be fine.

They say it will be an issue and i knew this was going to be an issue before people go on about how there stuff sucks.

The covers really nice and stout 

So i guess ill be fine shaving a bit off the bolts? I figure since there 4 bolt and its not a roller cam i should be just fine, there not under a ton of stress.

I would go with grade 8 bolts. Not much force going on I guess so the ARP is a waste of money IMO. You win the lotto or something as your on a buying frenzy it seems?
