Default RE: Engine mounting screws

I don't like using sheet metal screws or tapping an engine mount. I use machine screws with nylon nuts and lock washers.
A running engine has some vibration to it which will loosen up screws. One of the reasons why I'm not a fan of arfs that use blind nuts
in the firewall to fasten the engine mount.
