There's a pic of the stillen one on the bottom of the webpage, there's a little photo icon in the ordering section.

I wonder if there is an advantage or disadvantage, mechanically speaking, to either design?

Here are thehood strutsthat Joe is referring to...they will be powdercoated to match your Stang for that factory look. I am awaiting information from the molding company for a estimated delivery date, as of an hour ago it looks like 2 weeks.There are possibly a few painted proto types available sooner, but most likely bebest to wait for the powdercoating company to finish with the order. There will be natural aluminum sets available first of next week. At that time I will be able to give out pricing, they will be very competitive and you will definitely like the fit and finished product once installed. Uses existing hood bolts and one fender bolt, NO drilling required.

Grabber, a few questions if you don't mind


1.) price?

2.) what is the psi in the pistons?

3.) do these struts lift up the hood gently, or do they throw the hood up so that i have to fight it, or do i have to lift up the hood to where i want it and the struts just hod them there?
