The McM C 18-8 are probably not good enough(at least not for me) as they are not rated for grade, and are but 70,000psi. Their black Gr8, they are 180,000psi

ARP makes some HS SS fasteners. You want 17-4 PH stainless which is 170 ksi material.

I like these or G8 as well, although if you look at suspension stress analyses you will generally find even G5 fasteners have substantial safety factors in a good design. I have seen some designs that ain't that good though.
