I purchased a NOS intake. It requires a heat shield to be attached to the bottom side. Looking at the old one it appears to be attached with a "press fit" fastener.
I talked to folks where I purchased it (Chevy Dealer) and I was told it supposed to be riveted. The old one doesn't appear to be riveted and doesn't look like I can rivet the new one. Any suggestions???

That is a press in rivet that you are looking at on the old intake. They are knurled on the shaft and get hammered into the holes in the intake.
