Where did you get those hood hodges from. I like those. They won't work on my 1972 Bronco hood but I like them.

I wish we could edit posts. I have not idea what my phone thinks a (hodges) is
when I put in hinge. Technology oh boy.
But back to the topic, those Hood hinges are really cool. Inquiring minds would like to know about them.

Working on the hinge detail for you guys.....I too need to know for our build docs.
Still just mocked up until the hood is good to go.

I like it, they even offer the built in struts for a metal hood. I might see if this would be a option for my 72 body conversion on my 86 Bronco.

Virus excuses are subsiding.......we're finally at the Tuner with parts to assemble!
Was hoping for KOH but after all that's transpired I have no faith in that.
Baja in the Spring is pretty nice.....

Nice, I am still stuck buy parts for my 1972 Bronco with my 86 Bronco Chassis going under the 72. I am doing a stroker on my 351w, probably 427. I want to keep it around 550hp. I would rather not have to deal with mega transmission, transfercase or rear axle issues. But I will be running a full floater 9in, 3in wider per side to match the front. I already had the C6 rebuilt and should be good to 600hp, so we shall see. If I break it, I may upgrade to a 6R80 ford 6 speed and they are said to have handled safely up to 1000hp. So we will see.

What engine mounts are you on? I’m sure it could be the perspective of the picture, but I really thought that intake would be taller than it looks. Especially from the pic you posted of just the intake. It looks great, can’t wait to see the numbers.

Autofab mounts. At one time I was concerned about the height of the hi-ram, but it's actually lower than the stock manifold. Actually wish it was higher......would have made an easier time to fit the intake wye to the TB out to the air cleaners.
