Would like to get everything done and back in the car tomorrow rather than waiting for expensive bolts.
I personally don't think it is necessary to replace the crankshaft bolt (the large 27mm one). Unless of course if it is damaged.

I cannot comment on the flywheel bolts. If they are torque to yield (TTY) bolts that could be a reason to replace them. Good luck!
