I know that some high-mileage, very experienced owners take that approach while others, of similar expertise, bolt the whole thing down as hard as possible. As far as I'm aware, both methods do not appear to cause any sort of problem.

I use a three bolt strategy. 
The two front ones and one rear with an old clutch spring under it. 
Seems to work ok.
