Phil, I use the Calibre nuts and bolts. I imagine they were made for Military models but you get 360 per pack which is awesome value. Here's the link to the product at Hiroboy's store.

OK, time for some updates
The kit radiators look OK but I had to make some changes.
First I sanded off the raised details, then replaced the radiator face with Fine Molds mesh. I still need to add the weld seams and paint them.

Next, I turned my attention back to the motor and started on the fuel injection set up.
I'm using turned metal intakes so I drilled the plate to allow the trumpets to fit. Once the holes were drilled I mounted the injectors and then cut the excess which protrudes into the hole where the new intakes will go. I used a round file so when completed the parts will still be flush with the intake trumpets. I also replaced all the kit molded nuts with aftermarket items

Next I fit it all together and installed the protective mesh. I still need to detail paint the mesh but am very happy with the end results.

More soon!
