[Walt Fricke]

Also, I'd not recommend any Loctite or the like on the bolt threads - it is easy enough to strip the Allen removing them as it is, and you really don't want to be fussing with heat or other expedients to remove the bolts. As long as you retorque them after some use (since they can loosen as the gasket - if you use one - compresses over time) you will be OK.
