Weak hood hinge springs?

Denny, Here is pdf of the hinge assembly. I drilled out the rivet the joins the upper and lower portions of the assembly because I was going to use the upper port for templates for billet gas spring hinges. So what I have are the hinges with the upper and lower portions separated. I'm not sure that what you want, but if it is let me know. I'll send you follow up as a PM
