Lord I would sure hope that stainless washers wouldn't deform in 200 degree heat. The heat expansion coefficient is slightly different, but I doubt it would have any effect in practice... the washer will try to get 30 microinches thicker than the steel assembly it is in, between a cold and hot engine.

As for strength, I don't recall the original washers being stainless; if that's correct, the new washers will no doubt be stronger than the old.

Why not just stack 2 washers?
