Didn't want to hijack another thread re: 470 vs. 426 rivets, but it raises a question that is relevant to where I am now...
There are several "clips" and angles that are riveted to the inlet ramps and the forward baffles (the ones that go right behind the crankshaft flange/spinner). I think it would look nicer if they were riveted with 426 rivets, but plans call for 470s.
Would I end up just having to redo these later due to failure if I went with flush rivets instead of universal, do you think?
TIA...
