Default hood shocks for WS6? and other ????

im getting an OEM WS6 hood.......i now have the standard flat hood...will the shocks i have now work with the new hood? or do i need to get different shocks?

also, i now have the standard lower air box with an SLP lid. alls i need is the WS6 raised lower air box, correct? got that coming too.


what about the bellow? i have a stock bellow...so will it stretch and work with a taller box?




thanks!

Don't worry about the hood struts if the WS6 is OEM they are the same (if it were a fiberglass hood I would use a lighter shock). And yes to the other questions.

use the lighter struts and you won't damage your hood!

If its aftermarket fiberglass yes, if its OEM you won't damage it. Running an OEM ws6 hood here for 2 years with stock struts, no damage.
