[Healeys] Fastener source

[Neil Anderson]

List,

I have another question.  Does anyone know of a source for the round flat
top screws that hold the Lucas Altette HF 1748 horns together?  I think they
might be referred to "cheesehead" screws or something similar.  Screws like
this of a different size hold the dash pots to the carb body.

 

The size of the screws are about 7/32 x 7/16 and are probably Whitworth.
Two longer ones are used at the bottom of the horn to attach the mounting
bracket.  

 

The brass tag on the back has a 3/58 at the end of the number sequence.  Is
this the date of manufacture of the horns?

 

Any sources for British fasteners would be appreciated.  Thanks.
