ACDELCO 510951 Professional
AMS AUTOMOTIVE 4134

All from RockAuto Catalog.. Can't remember what I have on my hood at the moment. But during the colder months in Texas, I do use the old, improvised hood prop batr.

Re: Lift Supports

I bought several diff mfr. brand supports for my Z, cadillac and s-10.
SOME from Rock Auto and fleabay.
All were china cheapies in no name packaging.
So IMO prob. all the same mfr./supplier and they work fine.

For your fiberglass hood I guess you should order whatever is specified
and cross your fingers.
