I guess when you're right, you're right...
I have read each and every reply to my bizarre post, and have slept on it, and in the final analysis, all things considered (with no apologies to National Public Radio), I think this long hood-pin idea is OVERALL, the best idea. No cutting of hood, fender panels, nor any fabrication necessary (can you tell I'm L-A-Z-Y????)
That will be my plan of action; buy a hood and some long (tall) pins for the back; might even put one dead center of the line between the two back pins, to keep it from trying to "bow" in the middle, when the underhood pressure (if there is any) tries to lift it, at speed.
I don't really want to have to cut my inner fender panels, if I don't have to.
Thanks, Blownfish; I probably would never have thought of doing it this way... I'm not that smart.:angry7:
One final question:
I have no experience with fiberglass "anything," but, I know that they have a "street-weight" hood and a lighter, "race-weight" hood.
Is the "race weight" hood strong enough for this kind of abuse? I will be going a MAX of 120 mph...
Any opinions will be much appreciated!
