Need to replace fast idle screws for '74 midg. HS2

So a while back I completely dismantled my carbs and cleaned them stem to stern. Reassembled and it's been a happy car to drive. Problem is, I forgot to put the fast idle screws back in (the ones that go down below), and I can't find them. I also can't find someone selling just them (nor do I want to pay the shipping on 2 10 cent items /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif)

Does anyone have the magic numbers for what thread will work so I could go down to the local hardware store & get a replacement set? I'm hesitant to completely pull the carbs so I can do trial and error in the local hardware store given it's all pretty happy right now.
 
SAE something.
