The bolts for the spare blower in my office are M8x1.25, class 9.8, without any sort of obvious necking-down of the fastener shank. This is a bit of an oddball class so I can't find specs in the standard tables, but class 8.8 bolts should be torqued to 18.75 lb-ft, and class 10.9 bolts should be torqued to 27.75. The Lingenfelter instructions specify 20 lb-ft for torquing the "front cover" (snout) bolts, so you should be more than safe (this torque level should not cause the bolts to yield).

I reuse the bolts, FWIW.
