Question Mounting Andair Fuel valve

Trying to figure the best way to mount the Andair valve to the valve cover plate. The valve body is machined to accept k1000-08 platenuts, but an AN515-8R8 screw is too short. A regular AN3 bolt could be used, but a bolt head looks out of place on the cover plate. Any suggestions?

I used 10-32 round head screws on mine.

I temporarily installed it with AN3 bolts.. but I may in the end go with 10-32 screws, just like Jeff.

If you want to see it with bolts, here it is:

Default Andair Mounting

I'd just find longer screws...

Default Andair Mounting

Actually hit to post button too quick on the last one. I used the supplied screws, washers, and fiber locknuts. Worked fine.
