Aercatch hood pins and the Steel Firebird hood
I need some pictures of where you are putting the hood pins at for the Aerocatch hood pins. Other than member customblackbird who has his on a fiberglass hood, I'm not finding to many others that have these on the stock steel Firebird hoods, Help a brother out with some pictures for inspiration.

Re: Aercatch hood pins and the Steel Firebird hood
Not too many people put hood pins of any kind on the stock steel hoods. There really isn't a reason to from a functionality standpoint. Those hoods stay closed fine without them and a stiff enough to not need to hold the outer corners down with pins like a fiberglass hood. The available position to mount the pins doesn't change though between steel and fiberglass hoods. You either go to the core support or you fabricate some other point to attach the pins to.
