I like the 12mm because I'd be using the parent metal directly, with little removed for new threads. But I hate to have one unique bolt. I need to check whether a 12mm will fit thru the flywheel hole without drilling it out too, in which case the flywheel would have to go a specific way.

I don't suppose anyone thinks I can get away with it as-is???
