Anybody ever take a look at the rear bow and try to figure out how the factory bucked the rivets??? It's a Z inside a C and for the life of me I can't figure out how they got a bar inside to do the last row of rivets. Anybody help here? Also, what are the FAA approved replacement blind rivets for #3 solid rivets? I'm thinking something like a Cherry BSP-41 and BSPS-42 since they are 1/8" and have higher shear and tensile properties than the solid rivets they are replacing. One more hardware question... am replacing some of the #6 solid rivets in the firewall where the engine mounts attach with AN525 washer head screws. The sample screw I got from our (in)famous FAA representative and Ercoupe owner is (I believe) a 6-32 1/2 long with a 1/8" grip. Unfortunately neither Aircraft Spruce nor Wicks carry this size- they start at 8-32. Recommendations as an alternative (preferably something that Spruce carries since I order from them fairly often). Thanks!
