As for bolts holding everything together...remember, most cars are held together with bolts anyway. Even connecting rods are held together with bolts and they are subject to stupid amounts of vibration and loading. All jet engines (at least the ones I have seen) are held together with bolts. We are lucky on this one that we have Loctite as well!
How does it perform??? Not sure yet. But from years of experience and having built over 650 cars, I have a pretty good idea.
