hey guys read the post and remembered seeing these. I have wanted to get these hood pins but you also need hood struts to make these work so it's a bit of a pricey mod to fix the issue.

WMS racing also makes a really cool intake for the S197 Mustang. I have it and it works great.

For the hidden hood pins that he is referring to, you DO need them

sorry I wasn't clear about which hood pins I was talking about. To use the WMS hidden hood pins it does require aftermarket hood struts.

No you're not, I got rid of mine. Kind of expensive but they work great.
