Already mentioned it in the ASII thread.

I am running a heavy peltierized Maze 2-2 waterblock.
My nylon bolts are worn out and I can't get good clamp pressure so my cooling performance decreases gradially. :(

Plz let me know what the exact dimensions of the white plastic bolts that hold the block on the board. I'd also appreciate to know where to buy replacements or even better bolts for this purpose (metal ones should allow extreme clamp pressures).

I believe they're 3-inch lengths of #8 nylon threaded rod. I replaced mine with steel that I got at the specialy fastener section at my local Lowes.
