[Shotimes] Re: hood strut relocation kit for strut tower brace

[fwhittle@mindspring.com]

I bought Adam's relocators at the convention.  I'm very happy with them, but there is a bit of a clearance issue.  They interfere just slightly with the sides of the hood so that it doesn't close flush with the fenders.  I need to try grinding the corners of the fender portion of the relocators down so they can be turned inboard just about a millimeter (or enlarge the holes just a bit).  But then the hood struts would rub the tops of the strut towers just a bit more.  It works just fine, but it's TIGHT!
