more on hood prop
I'm still not clear on whether there is a gas assist prop rod that would replace the non-gas rod on my 87 Corvette.
I replaced the 2 smaller units but not much help.

I run an 87 with Hedman headers straight through to the end Borlas.
Sounds great but not offensive and runs even better.
If you want a muscle sound, this is the setup.
Good luck!

too small!
The 275/285s are too small for an 11" wheel. You'll run ito problems.
I had to put 315s on my AFR 11s.
If you go to my website
http://members.cardomain.com/bobcorvette you can see them.
