When did SG-4 become an engine mount bracket?

I'd suggest someone with dyslexia typed the part number and it should be
RV1613 !

Yes RR-5604's are stainless.

i'm about to rivet the engine mount brackets - SG-4.
Instructions call for an RV-1631 rivet - which I do not have.

As an alternate can I substitute either an RV-1613, RV-5604, or RV-1619.

Also - what is an RV 5604? is it stainless steel?

thank you wayne.
I purchased MR from guy that started kit in 1993 and never finished. Instructions from that era. It makes sense that RV1631 is typo and it should be 1613.
but - i don't have but 20 or so of the 1613. So would you suggest it's ok to use rr-5604's?

I wouldn't. Don' t like the way they pull (they don't make nice shop heads)
and the mandrels usually fall out when pulled. Get some RV1613's from MAM.

And the stainless pop rivets don't expand radially. So despite being
stronger they are more likely to smoke or move from engine vibration. I
agree with Wayne. 3/16" diameter avex are available from many sources.
If all else fails I probably have enough spare 1613 (or they might be
the longer 1619) that I can put in the mail.
