Hi Eliacim,
The blisters (actually spark plug fairings) are usually attached
with screws so they can easily be removed. You can put in #6 sheet
metal screws with Tinnerman nuts (ask your mechanic about them) or 6-32
machine screws with self-locking nuts (but it is not easy to hold the
nut in place with a wrench) or 6-32 machine screws with nut plates
riveted to the top cowl and nose bowl. I recommend the last method.
Yes, you will have to relieve part of the fairing flange to allow
for the cowl hinge. Don't take too much away.
See you in Terrell.

I just changed my top plugs to shielded and I am installing spark plug
blisters. (Racing against the clock to make Terrell!)
Some elementary questions for those of you who have blisters:
1. How do you attach the blisters? I am thinking rivets on the cowling, but
how do you attach the part of the blister over the nose bowl?
2. I've found that the left (pilot's side) blister interferes with the cowling
hinge, so I will have to cut out part of the blister flange to allow the
cowling to open. Has anybody found a smarter, cleaner way to deal with this?
