You dont NEED hood pins.

Ive been running my Concept hood for over 3 years, at well over 130 ( at Hennessey track in Sealy during 60-130et events ), no flutter.

I would agree with this. I've had my Concept hood for 2.5 years, and at over 100 MPH with no flutter. Indeed, one of the first things I did when I got my car back from the shop after the hood was painted/installed was to test whether or not the thing stayed put "at speed." No problems, and I love the hood!

Stock hoods flutter at speed. The problem is too much air getting under it and not venting easy enough.

They used to make a flush mount hood hold down. You turned a flush **** and it would release a pin that didn't stick above the hood.
