Some more question, kinda long, sorry.

I am about ready to start my TPI tear down to change that damn intake gasket. Ive got the AFPR "holley" MAT sensor relocation kit, new oil presure switch, chrome bowtie valve covers, I found some one to powder coat the parts when I get them off,Im going to get my plenum ported I guess I'll get one from TPIS for $85 so.......
I need to get me some new bolts for my TPI so which look better "button Head" or Socket Head" and whats the difference? I know what socket heads are. any one got any pics.

Also while im in the spending mood what else should be replaced on the TPI section. Im going to stay stock. Do you guys think Im doing to much to a little'ol 305.....thanks

socket head would be your everyday allen bolt, or torx bolt. button head would or could be allen or torx but instead of the sharp edges be rounded and tapper from the drive socket to near nothing at the edge. sorry no pics. if you look at some web sites i'd think you could see what they are.
