Billet Aluminum Hood Hinges?????

[oldhotrodder]

Looking to put new hood hinges on a 57 and can't seem to find any other than Eddie Motorsports hinges. Does anyone know of any others? And if you have the EMS ones do you like them?

They are a work of art...and you pay. I'd do it again. Stock type hinges are all over E bay.

I have heard they don't work properly do they open up far enough. I definitely want billet hinges however for this kind of money I want to get the best ones available, you know what I mean?

They are very smooth operationally. My truck sits very low and the hood has been pancaked so I can't be a judge of how far it should open. The hood is still off so I can do wiring and final engine stuff but when I did the trial fit/mock up, I remember thinking the hood wasn't as high as I remembered on other trucks. Don't know if it's my mods or the hinges or a combination of both. I don't know anyone else who makes them to compare. Interesting thought.
