[Sunrader Awning Rail Install]

I'm getting ready to install my awning rail on our 1986 Sunrader. We will be using a Carefree Campout bag awning.

Does anyone have any experience or advice about installing the awning rail? I have looked everywhere and have found surprisingly little info out there. I'm not sure if I should use rivets, screws or bolts to install the awning or what. What's the best place along the roofline to install? What will I encounter once I start drilling into the fiberglass? How do I use rivets if I can't get to both sides of the rivet, anyway?

Thanks!!!!

$2500 for a valve job? Find a new mechanic. You can ger an excellent, new OEM head for four or five-hundred bucks or you can get the head machined, with new valves for the same price. You can get a head cheaper than that, but you get what you pay for. A decent shop can get the old head out and the new head in six to eight hours tops.

And six grand for an engine swap is super-insane.

Get some more estimates.

EDIT - I didn't see that you had a V6. Different animal than a 22re. Never mind me!
