I never torque down bolts dry in a car. Always use either copa-slip or locktite on them, depending on their placement and stress they're subject to.

I got new bolts today and threaded one in all the way each hole by hand to be sure i didnt mess the crank threads.. it went in all the way smoothly in all the holes so im pritty sure the crank is ok. I think what may have made them vibrate out is my crank puly it is chipped to all hell. So ill get a new one well a stock new one... and have the flywheel checked and trued to be sure there is no unneeded virbation. I will put it all back together on friday at the hobby shop because the hobby shop is closed this week tues-thursday. After that i think im going to make an appointment with Wayne for like monday or tuesday befor i go to Desert Talon.
But over all im glad it was a easy fix.. but good lord those bolts are expensive. $9 just for 2 of them... BETTER than a new clutch or tranny i sapose..
