you should be able to find a suitable screw from a hardware store or automotive/industrial supply.....just take the cinch assembly with you and test fit till you find the right screw...... not sure what types of stores you have close to you, but it shouldn't be too hard to find something

Use picco plugs, p5 is what I use with my Team 28 turbo on 25% nitro 12% oil, Novarossi 086 in a 1/8 buggy.
My picco also ran much much nicer after I stripped it and sealed it all up nicely....the carb-case and cinch bolt were pretty leaky !
Might try the 053 pipe as they say it makes tuning easier and consistant...my picco is a touch tricky to get the best tune(cool and really fast) on a hot day.....makes bucket loads of power in anyones book tho !
