It will open further, but this is where it rests with the springs in place. After looking at the pics of yours, it appears to lean further forward than mine. The angle of the hinge arms is different than mine when all the way open. Did you do anything to the bumpstops on the hinges? That's the only way I see that I could get it to rest open any further.

Thanks, Kade
The hood pics above are aired-out. Frame is about 2" off the ground. This will change when the drop spindles go in...
