I have seen different threads on hood pin locations, most are just in front of hood bumpers.
My car does not have the hole/cut out in front
What is the measurment of the rectangular cut out? Thanks

My mistake, pics are from '72 Demon which had factory holes for the pins and underside of hood.

I have seen slight variations in these from exactly in front of the hood bumper to very slightly inward.
I only have my 75 duster nowadays, and have never seem anything to suggest a factory hood pin location on any 73-76 dusters I've seen. Which won't affect you.
Note the cut out to enable access to tighten the pins, also factory duster pins had a special nut to make installation easier, reasonably priced reproductions are around.

Thanks for the info, I got a stainless steel set from Dale's Cuda shop for Dusters.
Very good quality.
