I got all 24 of mine off properly too. It's just that torquing them at 11 at night in 15 degree weather doesn't seem to work well. The Allens seem fine.

One thought: You can buy bendable star shaped washers with a saftey wire hole in them. These are used with hex heads, once torqued the washer is bent to hold the head and saftey wired to an adjacent bolt.

Just the CV bolts are stretch bolts as far as I know.

Flywheel bolts are a stretch bolt, and need to be replaced everytime.
