Just put a 4" cowl hood on the 85 GT.....just purchased a Moroso hood pin kit (steel).....where do you install the pins at on the radiator support? Anyone have pics of their fox with hoodpin location?

Click to expand...

That's what a lot of people do, but, you'll need the hood bumps. Just measure off a location on the radiator support where you think they would look good... I'll check for pictures...

Well, I'll have to take pictures tonight for ya. Mine are a couple of inches away from the bumps. You need those to adjust the hood correctly, and to keep from slamming the crap out of your expensive hood mang
