Stainless is lovely for most places but remember they don't have a very good sheer resistance so don't use them for brake caliper mounts and the like.

Also remember that if left undisturbed into engine cases the alloy will corrode to the stainless with the likely result of the screw sheering when you go to undo it, which means it'll be a bit of a pickle to drill out of the engine case (Cobalt drill bits are the order in that case).
