Bolt torque discussion

Sublime one said

So quick question on YTT modern bolts, I need to relocate oil pick up support bracket. I have read equally compelling arguments for both sides of the reuse them vs replace. What is the FABO brain bolt trust thoughts? I was looking at simply replacing them as I figured it was cheap insurance. I am just not that familiar with the modern bolts. Apologize for my ignorance but just not much experience on all things modern.

TTY (torque-to-yield)? In my world, YTT mean's "yesterday's technology tomorrow" LOL. I am not getting the connection between TTY bolts and the support bracket bolts? TTY bolts are a particular bolt design and application technique, not a matter of being modern or ancient.

I would not imagine pickup support bolts being a TTY design...maybe I don't know. So they could be re-used over an over... as long as they were never overtorqued, or the threads were not worn. But replacing them seems like they would be cheap.
