LMAO!

That is seriously funny lol!

Anyway can you look under the hood while closing real slow and see what is holding it back? Mabye its time to get a cowl or trade me for my Accel runners and ported plenium? I'll throw in some slicks also

Did you leave a tool or fastener on the cowl? Did something fall into the hinge mechanism? Did you take your trouble light out? Did you remove your fender cover?

haha not funny! Try spending what I have then only to find out your hood wont shut.. There are no tools, lights, or anything. You cant slip a **** hair in there. The only way I was able to get it to shut was to raise the back of the hood about 1in. Even then the hood still hits when it is shut. I am wondering if it is the new motor mounts...>?<
Besides there are plenty of people running these setups with no probs at all... I guess thats just racing!!!!!
