I use McMaster Carr a lot.... for my film industry work... and I
order much of the hardware that I sell with my gaskets from them. They
are EXTREMELY efficient in getting orders out and sending paperwork,
etc. It's become very difficult to get physical catalogs now, but
their online catalog is very handy for racers' purposes. For example,
you could search for a washer or a bolt by size.... thickness... type...
etc... and really narrow down what's available, etc.
Now I do have a bias here... Their west coast distribution center is in
Santa Fe Springs, CA, which is just a 1/2 hour or so drive for me.... So
I use their Will Call quite often!
If you do get a catalog, hang onto it as Charlton Heston said he would
relative to his guns. It's not like it used to be, where they would
send a new one very year.
