I realize I'm being excessively OCD with this, but I've bought a stop tailpiece (https://shop.fender.com/en-US/parts/bri ... 68000.html) for my '75 Strat rehab project and would like to know the specs of the screws that were/are used to mount it; trying to stay as close to original as possible.

My best guess so far are #6x1 in. flat head Phillips... any ideas?

Your best is to see what the existing holes in the body are but I would anticipate larger than sixes.

Fender Vintage Stratocaster Hardtail Bridge Mounting Screw, part number 0026625049 - they're #8x1.
Edit: Some sellers spell that part number as 002-6625-049.
