Good info and thanks for the pics. If the hood has a provision for the hood latch then would the outboard be
the better solution?

I see in Charlie pic his crossram hood utilizes the hood latch and catch mechanism.

I would say if the hood has a mount for a stock hood latch, then outer mounted hood pins are okay.

If no mount, I'd advocated mounting the hood pin set up more inboard like the red '69 Camaro pictured.

My car has been 155 mph in the 1/4 but I run the Aerocatch hood pin setup.
