Try using threaded studs with star or schnoor washers instead of bolts.
After my ham-fisted brother-in-law broke off one of the rear bolts on
the generator bracket, I tried different fixes to hold the generator
level.
I seem to remember trading a case of beer to have the bracket welded to
the block. I went to the welding shop on the Naval Station where I was
stationed, and a civilian machinist used some fancy welding technique,
maybe TIG???

I know I never had any more trouble.........
