Default Intake Shield Rivets
Good afternoon everybody, can someone point me to a source for the drive pins/rivets for the heat shield on my tri-power intake? We found the shield (in good shape!) and just need the right size drive pins for it. I've seen them somewhere on-line but I can't find them again. As always, your help is much appreciated.

Are you talking about these? There are 3 different sizes. Used them on my 68 and don't see a need in the future for them.

If you can use them you are welcome to them. Happy Holidays.
