Hood Hinge Question

I need to replace the worn out hood hinges (pins are sloppy) on my 67' and am looking for advice on whether I should go for genuine GM parts or whether one of the aftermarket hinges is "as good" or perhaps even better. I've read several times where the current production OEM hinges are not near the quality they used to be and some are saying that certain brand non-oem hinges are actually better quality than what you can get at the Chevy dealer today. Thoughts and opinions please.

Ideally I'd like to find a set of new-old-stock hinges but suspect that is highly unlikely that I would locate a set....at a decent price.
