SS Hood questions (cowl to hood seal etc....)
Hey
I've installed an ASCD SS hood recently. Getting ready to take her to the body shop to get painted but i have a couple issues with my hood.
1) What have you guys done about the hood spring. It doesn't have a way to install it at all without some custom work. ???
2) Is there a hood to cowl seal that you can purchase for that hood? I think my hood still needs to be moved forward about 1/2" but I keep getting hot air from the engine compartment coming up and goin into the cowl and when i got the vent on all i get is warm/hot air.
3) Lastly, has anyone had any problems with the passenger side windshield wiper hitting the hood itself, mine hits. I can notch it out but then again, when i move it forward alittle it may miss... who knows...
Thx
