Just a quick clarification please, These are all hex(allen) head, stainless steel right?
If so, I'd like a set also. (Engine and late carb)

I prefer the socket head cap screws but if you wanted the carb kits button-head Im ok with that. I am not interested if they are hex head bolts... cuts down on required tools needed on road side.

There's six different 'kinds' of 'phillips' screws, only one is really a phillips..
It does make a difference, you can booger up a screw with the wrong driver pretty easily. Look here...
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_screw_drives
I know the Posidriv screws really don't like you using a phillips driver on them...
