I currently have the bulk of my engine tin off and have ruined a few of the cheesehead screws. I am contemplating whether or not to simply buy some new cheeseheads from the local VW place and make sure to use anti-sieze on them, or should I replace the cheeseheads with another type of fastener altogether.
Any suggestions? BTDT? |

Looks like we have consensus about allen head cap screws. There are different lengths though, but I guess that doesn't really matter when you are just attaching 2 pieces of tin together - more so when you re-attach the impeller housing to the case.
