Title: Replacement screws from original to better Post by: fe350chev on December 14, 2014, 07:32:22 AM Did many of you change from stupid Philips head to tek type screws or better ones when rebuilding?
I'd like to start a thread where ppl talk about and show pics of various improvements like nutserts, dash screws and/or ideas on making it easier to work on the car. There will be NO Philips head screws going back in the modded fe but the original fc I'll just put back much better quality.
