Some of these repro parts are just plain sh!t.
I recently bought a set of stainless clutch head fasteners for the rear fender to bed side. These things didn't fit the clutch head screw driver or wrench I had. Were cut too small. Why would they bring something like this to market, I had to make a tool to stop them from turning when I tightened them down. I contacted Classic Parts, nothing but crickets.
