bolt on hood or pin on?
what is the difference between a bolt on cowl hood and a pin on? i heard that the pin on hood allows the cowl to come back closer to the windshield, is that true?

Re: bolt on hood or pin on?
bolt on uses factory bolts and opens up like stock.. the pin up hood uses hood pins to hold the car down and you generally have to take the whole hood off... it will not raise up like stock because it doesnt use any hood struts or the other features... personally a bolt on hood is much better

pin on hoods are a PITA, and require a lot of work to get on the car. Get a bolt on
