I just helped a buddy install his new Sunoco Hood (***SICK****)
We are wondering what hood struts to get? You have to use 25lbs hood struts, so where do i find them? Thanks

Will post pics today.....

I tried AZ and they said, they only go by the application. Not by the weight. I dont want to use a 2x4 on this new hood......

I was told the stockers might break the hood or warp it......The are to strong and for a heavier hood...
