    If you send back the Spiker hood struts you will eventually order them again. You'll see. Actually 6'',ha.I have them,they are set the extra 6'' up, it makes a huge difference working in engine bay close to firewall.

    Always a good rule of thumb :thumbsup:. Our kits make it even easier as they don't require any measurements - set the fender brackets in place, raise the hood to where you want it, install the hood brackets, and enjoy :cheers:. Easy peasy.
