Those aerocatch latches are dope.. I bought them for my ws6 hood, but the installer, didn't seem to want to install them, and said it would not look as good.

I agreed, and I didn't truly need them, so I gave them to my brother.

Also, it's altERnator not altinator.

I was going to make the exact same two points. I've always liked those latches although I wish they weren't quite as thick. I guess there isn't exactly another way to make them though of they already would.

You can make them flush in the hood, its a little more difficult and time consuming but it looks amazing.

got a few more goodies and my radiator, fan, and shroud mounted! my brodix heads and comp cam have been ordered. The heads are going to have 295 intake runners and the cam is going to be a .640 lift, i dont have the spec card on me right now so im not sure on the duration. Talked to Diamond about making me a custom piston to hold more nitrous but the didnt seem to interested, so i called up JE pistons and they were more than happy to make a set for me.

Build is looking good. I agree about it being overkill, but like you said....who'd be upset if it ran better than you are hoping for?
