Thanks for trying with a source. Unfortunately neither sell the original style Phillips screws.

Well, first off, they're Pozidrive screws, so use that for future search criteria.

McMaster does have "similar" screws at the bottom of this page: https://www.mcmaster.com/#pozidriv-machine-screws/=8hmbpv

Posidrive are the new replacement for Phillips & have Lines extending out from the center on the Head. The original Phillips Heads have Circular Lines. Needed for concours

Posidrives are the original fasteners used to assemble the cars in England.

Pozidrive and Philips are just that, one isn't a substitute for the other.

Since you can't find the hardware you're looking for, restore the hardware that you already have. I purchased a Grobet Vibratory Tumbler (plus an assortment of media) in an effort to reuse all of the hardware for an early 100/6 (2-port) engine that I've been contracted to restore.

After nearly two (<2) weeks of continous running, due to small batches__keeping the individual fasteners sorted__the final batch of hardware is currently in the bowl (yay!).

I have been very pleased with the results, but this process is only meant to clean up decent hardware to its original state; it cannot reshape bungled heads or damaged threads.

Like when you use a Phillips screw driver to tighten a posidrive screw?
