Template for hole in the hood

I have a Dart Sport, but I'm sure the hoods are similar. I needed clearance to clear my carb and filter, and I always toyed around with velocity stackes, so I cut a larger opening than the two six inch holes. I didn't want to cut supports and weld in new ones, so I cut at the factory triangle. Here are some shots of what I did, and there is a ton of room.

The area cut out.
