Just search "titanium quill bolt". I replaced my SS quill bolt with a Ti bolt, grams/dollar was reasonable and that is about the only SS-to-Ti bolt swap for which you can say that. The strength of the bolt isn't critical since this fastener is never tightened much. Make sure your stem expander is alloy, and consider cutting your stem short, for more weight weenie gram savings.
