if you have you hood hook and latch it right I dont see that you will have any problem with it.
the nose pcs will use 6 screws to hold it down and the holes are recessed.

No gas fill for this design. I have the oem style with gas fill. I think that I have posted some picture of it in this tread.

so that hood is the same height as the stocker?

yes so the pole clear up the top and will make it nicer for hood trick.
the stock sn as the same hight as the after market rn that I make or some of the other after market hood. also the sn as the perfect hight for balance and and center of gravity.

I should be able to start selling the nose pc next week after I evaluate the cost.
I will have the hood line up for sale next week to if time allow in the shop for me to calculate the cost of it.

he said in previous posts it should be around 600 for the hood and nose together
I'm working on getting all that figured out so by the end of this week there should be some hood available for sale. I work on the layup for the nose pc today and I'm pretty happy how it turn out.
I'm finishing the liner mold and waxing it tomorrow. Stay tuned....
