Product Details
Universal Competition Hood Pin Kit with Lanyards (1616) by Mr. Gasket®. Competition cars are often required to use hood pins during races to prevent the hood from flying open during an accident. But a set of hood pins also is a fine style element if you’re building a hot rod or muscle car. Mr. Gasket has a variety of race-ready and locking hood pins to fit your vehicle.
Installation
Be absolutely certain that your hood (or deck lid) can’t open inadvertently by pinning them shut. Many racing sanctioning bodies require this for competition, in fact. You can lighten your vehicle a few pounds by removing the hood latch mechanism and the cable and lever as well. A set of locking hood pins are a great way to prevent theft of easily-removable high-ticket items from underhood, like carburetors, distributors, alternators and ignition amplifiers, too.
