So i recently got bought this motor from a buddy out of a rtr savage flux 2350. He decided he wanted to take it apart and ended up stripping all the tiny allen's that hold both end bells on. I managed to remove all the screws with a little bit of heat and a handy dremel.

Now my problems is finding hardware to replace these. I measure them at 2mm in diameter and 3.5mm long. I went to my LHS and he didn't have anything and said maybe try looking to see if something small like a mini T had hardware like that. so i headed home thinking my Mini 8ight might have something and nope!

I'm in need of some help sourcing some of these screws, I'm having a hard time and am almost ready to drill and tap it for bigger M3 hardware. This is the only thing holding me up on my project and i want to finish it!
