Here are countersunk screws for the bottom of the chassis (if needed)....

Here are some cap-head or "socket" screws. These work great for the bulkheads and upper deck, because the head is beefy enough that they don't strip. You could also mount the shocks with them.

I changed all of my bottom chassis screws from aluminum to what I thought were stainless steel, but it seems they are titanium.... because it barely added 5g of weight to the car! Changing the bottom screws from carbon steel to aluminum shaved more than that...... I got the screws loose from a friend, so I didn't know until I weighed them.

Mr. Wishbone --- can you post a link to your carpet setup? Or at least what you typically start with? I found one I liked for our low/med bite carpet track while it was open, and I'd like to compare them! OR if you've found a good starting point for high bite carpet..... I don't get many chances to test on it
