Thanks for the information. I'll stick with SS as most plated screws will deteriorate under paint. I have replaced everything that we have changed with SS bolts and have not looked back. An old stovebolter here told me when you replace, replace it with SS as they are easy to connect and dis-connect... sage advice I'd say BUT if you are going for 100 pts. then you need to use original items and I understand that totally. Thanks steve
