    That was actually pretty easy.

    550

    Speaking of which, are the 550 bolts supposed to be Allen head?

    I can't comment on the 550s, but the 650/750 i have both have them. Looks like yours are stainless too, which is a good thing.

    The stainless ones in the pic are form the carburetors. The bolts were just regular black ones. Now that I think about it, I probably should replace them with stainless before I put the carbs back in.
