So, I'm working on this tpi and the bolts are wack. No one had the size needed and they're saftey screws. I decided to tap and re-thread the assembly. Tools - Drill 3/16 drill bit #10-24 drill & tap kit #10 x 1in socket bolts (6) m5 lock washers The 5/16 bit was for the hat (top regulator housing). On two of the holes, the tap wasn't able to thread down the hole all the way. So, I had to double up washers on those. 5 of 6 holes I had already drilled - Assembled with new bolts -

Thanks, eric!
Lucid-it was already adjustable - but the guy stripped the bolt. When he tried to put it on, the excitement caused him to strip 4 of the stock bolts. Fuel sprayed everywhere. So, we pulled it off and I tapped new threads with better bolts. Now the it should work and be easier to adjust.
