Default RE: Hood pin install

I have the Ford pins on mine. I have some photos on my home computer of the install, but I'm out of town all week. I mounted the pins in the radiator support, then placed clay on the underside of the hood to mark where the drill should go. Unfortunately, the Ford pins are about 1/2 inch too short for where I am mounted (have a fiberglass hood, but I think it is stock height there), so I had to make spacers for them off the radiator support. Another guy had extra threaded shank welded on for the same issue.

There are plenty of threads on this subject. Hopefully you can find more install data...
