Magoo,

It looks like you have the stealth hood pins. How do you like them?

They work really good, but you need a lot of power to close the hood now.
I hope I make no dents in the hood when closing it, because you have to push the hood very hard.

And I will be ordering a PowerHouse aluminum driveshaft today. But then I need to explain why all these boxes keep showing up

Just start sending them to my place Doug, it's a sacrifice I'm willing to make for the greater good of house hold peace

There isn't a way to adjust the tension?

Any issues with the screws that hold the pins in the hood?

Thanks

WMS stealth hood pins are additional to the stock hood latch.
So, if the screws would not be able to old the hood you still have the stock hood latch in the middle.
The spring of the stock hood latch is much more stretched now after the modifications for the new cables going to the wms latches.

My resolution is either to buy a GT500 this upcoming year or forever keep the GT instead. Either way, one of the two will be sporting Alcoa wheels and be lowered with the parts I have on order right now.

Robert, thanks for your willingness to help... but I am sure I can figure out some way to keep the peace

But I guess we will see as I have 3 boxes showing up early next week

Finally installed my Ford Racing CAI (wow- what a difference!) and I was given one of the CDC trunk detail corrals. Cool.

Got a billet Hurst. Can't wait to bolt it up. Love the look of the Hurst while ball. Especially with my black interior.
