So, I've seen a few pics of Mark VIIs with their hoods open and I see they have these springs for holding the hood up, rather than hydraulic cylinder thingies.

I've heard rumors about guys wanting to eliminate the prop rod on their non-Mustang cars and the Mustang kits have not worked out well. Has anyone tried these? I really hate my prop rod and would like other options. I have to imagine a Mark VII hood is probably heavier than a Zephyr hood.
