Where might I find rivets to match the ones that came with the kit? The head measures about .608" and I'd like to find some to match.

Thanks,
Mike

McMaster-Carr has a huge selection to choose from.

FFR never supplied rivets with heads that big. someone must have changed them out.

Yep I'm familiar with them. Didn't know if these rivets were available through FFR...to make sure they match up. I'll check with McMaster.

Very well could be something like these. I use them a lot. https://www.summitracing.com/search/product-line/summit-racing-ultimate-rivets/part-type/rivets. I like McMaster too. But these from Summit are a good value. Several of them have the oversize head you might be seeing.
