Sometimes wood screws are simply the best choice. My speed brake is installed with a bunch of #6 wood screws on about 3" centers. They screw through a piece of 5/8" spruce epoxied to the bottom of the aft spar, and then into the lower spar cap as well. They aren't going anywhere, T-88 on the threads are not. Yes, I'm the guy with the 130 mph speed brake. See http://www.n56ml.com/n891jf/speedbrake/ for details, also I'm pretty sure Paul's already seen it...
