Dick,
I have a pair of pneumatic lifts on my front tilting bugeye steel bonnet.
They work great in that I can open and close it with one hand. I think I
used two 15 or 20 pound tubes. Another spridgteer tried larger poundage
tubes but his bonnet wouldn't stay closed! The tubes can be sourced in
different lifts and poundage. Do some searches on the internet. As to
holding a bonnet up in the standard position I can't even begin to guess
what poundage you will need.
