[QUOTE="pipemaker, post: 336723, member: 40"] Fr_Tom, I do not have the hardware for these bowls, but they will accept the standard factory screw and base plate. If you are interested in making your own screw, the type you want is a Fillister head machine screw. with a 10/32 thread. The head diameter is 3/8". An overall length of .425" seems to work well for most bowl/radiator combinations. I would be cautious not to overtighten a steel screw in an aluminum base plate or radiator Kirsten claims to have made three different length screws but were unable to tell me what length they were and which bowl/radiator combinations they fit. It seems all 3rd generation Kirstens used the .425 " screws. If anyone can supply me with information regarding lengths other than .425" I would greatly appreciate it. Regards, Mike Brissett [/QUOTE]
