Re: Linear activated hood.

Okay

So you want it like a Dual Gate opener except vertical instead of Horizontal, With a Lock (Which would be the hood latch).

Except a Miniature version

Now we are on the same page

You need to use Wiper motors on the hood hinges.
That can be accomplished with gearing and bracketry

Most importantly is to make sure the hood is Not latched

Before the motors start to raise the hood.
