We were talking about the sheet metal tin screws, not the oil cooler screws.
Those reallly work fine. If you want though, you could try to locate some
1/4-20's and use nylock nuts on them, or even some M6 nylock nuts, but I don't see
any reason to do so. I mean those screws for the cooler have worked good for
over 30 years. : )
