      Anyone get their aluminum hood hinges to work with them? That is without hacking them up!

      I notched mine (bar not hinge) as well. With matching paint it's tough to tell it didn't come this way.

      Did some machining on the mounting for the strut.
      And now it fits nice.

      Yes that is a turbo. This system is from martin industries and has a Rajay 300EE flow turbo with a carbon seal ( it’s a draw trough system).
