Are you going to pin the hood or latch it, or use dzus fasteners? The more I look at the UP22 hood on your AMX the more I like it.

I have light springs on the hinges and with the added weight of the cowl it barely holds it up so I use the prop rod for safety.
The intake is one I know of and have to check if its still available, although a torker or indy may be simpler

Looks great! What Kind of quality is it ? Can you use regular hinges and springs and does it all line up good? Why take the spring off? Think it would be a nice fit for the cross ram ?
