Wait, didn't I just say that?

:D Since we're talking about mounting screws I'm gonna throw my thoughts in here. I have been using 2-56 button head machine screws since we started retro racing over 4 years ago. They thread right in to the metric holes although the first time some resistance is felt. I have never had one strip or loosen up even in the worst crashes and I have three year old motors that still tighten up and stay in the car with no problems. 1/8 long screws work fine in both FK and PS motors.

Hey Mike,
At least it's a machine screw! ;)

Painted my first body in a long time, Shades my painter has me spoiled from doing this least favorite task of mine.
Still needs a few little finishing details.
