No way Jose, Any aluminum bolt is not a good idea for the seats and or brackets as stated.
I went with high grade Titanium on mine. Saved only a pound or so if I remember correctly and that was between both front A-100 seats and the bolts attaching the seats to the brackets. Lot more costly then aluminum, but also a lot more safer in a Amen situation. In any case, make sure to use good grade Titanium or 7075 aluminum wide washers under the seat to chassis mount to spread the clamping.

Dampers? That's a good small rotating mass right there on the front of the engine. Might not see so much of a difference and then again if you do, you may never know exactly to what specific thing because of all the various things you have pulled off so far this Winter. In either cas. I'd like to see that pup be below the 3K weight bar and see a good 9.47 or so out of it.

Okay, I'm away from my desk at the moment, half way down the equator. I suspect 3010 LBs.

How do you guys feel about alum. bolts on seats as in roll bar bolts and mounting to floor bolts. I`ve got a guy that goes to L.A. on thursdays and can get whatever I need in alum.................

Two more zeus fastners to tie the hood down and mount the seats and were cruisin....... 
Off to lady friends house.........
