Default Better Crawford plenum bolts

On my Crawford cast plenum I'm using bolts with nylon washers and when I torque down the bolts it crushes the washer. I've seen some other members that have bigger bolts that look nicer. Anyone know where I could pick up a set?

Bump... anyone have an idea? I've seen quite a few Z's with this but even Doug @ Crawford couldn't help me on where to pick some up.

Bad pic, I know...

I would just take a bolt out and bring it to lowes/home depot and get something that matches but has a bigger head and get some better washers. I have the same problem, i might do this today when i get out of work...i'll report back if so.

I would say just snug + a little pressure, the bolts around the outside are the ones really sealing things up.
