Most if not all will unless you get some hood pins.

Also I hear that lowering the hood bumpstops will stabilize it a little.

I'd say the chances of any non-vented hood doing this is pretty good. The way the front of the Stang is designed(large and relatively flat surface with the hood overhanging the grill)the air gets trapped under the front of the hood which wants to lift it. That is 90% of why I added the pins to my stock hood now that 100% of my grill is open. The remaining 10% was look.
