Finished this last night. Very handy install because you can move about the engine without worring about the hood prop. :w00t:

Where did you get those, we have a guy in our club that has them also. I would love to find some chrome ones.

Looks good by the way

Neat.

Always the pessimist, I gotta say that they look like they would be more in the way than a regular prop rod for most engine tweaking and serious work. But they win points for being cool just the same.

VERY EASY. Out of 1 to 10, this project was a 3. Requires drilling. The set comes with VERY detailed instructions. There is a install PDF on the site you can read.

Wire loom kit. You can get them on ebay pretty cheap. I think I got 5 different sized looms, with wire tie for 14.95
