Trouble with the FLM half case is its designed to only be used with the other half of the case, in which case the supplied screws fit perfectly, and the bearing recces' are the correct depth for each half to work together- when you use the gorillamaxx part with the half case, the screw holes are too shallow, so you need shorter screws to prevent them from bottoming out ( when the two halfs of the case go together it doesnt require really long screws to hold them together, just a few threads is fine for a positive connection, hence the shallow holes).
Seems like a half case option to be used with the gorillamaxx parts was an afterthought, made without making any alterations to the design ( I would have allowed more room for bearing play to be adjusted with shims, and deepers holes to screw the gorillamaxx cover in place; hindsight is 20/20 however....).
