Default Where to buy pedal assy bolts?

I'm missing one of the four bolts that are pressed into the pedal assy and goes thru the firewall. The master cylinder bolts to two of the bolts and the other two are shorter and simply bolts to the firewall. I have checked every store that sells bolts and Zip and I'm about ready to go to the salvage yard. Please help!

Long Island Corvette supply does not show the bolts on there web site. It looks like they are part of the bracket, don't know what to tell you.

Just use a 3/8"-16 bolt (and a 3/8" flat washer) that's the same length as the one directly across from the missing one; it doesn't need to be knurled, splined, or welded to the flange on the bracket.

Thank you for the post John and I think that is going to be my only option as machining a bolt to look original and then tack it to the assy just seems like over kill. I was trying to keep it original but after 2 days of searching I think I'm ready to throw in the towel and simply use a bolt as you suggest.
