If a hood already has the pin holes in it then one doesn’t have the option to relocate them unless the hood holes are filled then new fiberglass work, paint and etc..
I agree totally with Freddie about placing them more inboard to distribute the wind load that happens when driving the car. My pins are located outboard of the the hood and I’ve just recently had to do some fiberglass repair on the front cross brace of the hood. I caught the crack developing in the brace before it caused damage to the painted surface.My Harwood Stinger hood takes a beating driving at 60 MPH moving up n down. It’s very lightweight and only weighs approximately 20 lbs..
If one has the option to place new hood holes then go with Freddie’s method. But if it’s a trailer queen all this makes no difference just place them to whatever suits your fancy.
