I ordered these bolts which arrived today. They look great for the money and all bagged up and labelled as it says. I'll see if I feel as good when they are all fitted. I did try researching the various grades of stainless steel but they are a bit confusing. I hope the ones that I have bought are not like chocolate! Bought the plenum and rocker cover kit as well.

If you need any odd nuts and bolts Gilbert Laurence just outside Uxbridge are good and can match up what you have with stainless and Think Automotive in Isleworth are great for shinny bits of plumbing(hoses oil coolers etc)

A4 has best corrosion resistance but A2 I believe are stronger.

Very helpful thanks.

I saw a catalogue at Racing Green the other day from Car Builder solutions (cbsonline.co.uk) which is packed with useful stuff. I just filled in my details on line and one arrived within 48 hours. I was looking for a battery cut off switch that would sit on the battery terminal in the foot well, which they have. There are lots of consumables as well. Worth a look if you are sad in that way!
