ive got a 79 c10 bagged and im planning on putting 22s on the front. my question is what is ever one with this year doing about hood hinges, because just by the look of things the factory ones will hit.

A couple of options you have is to relocate some custom hinges on the firewall or go with a tilt-forward hood. For the firewall hinges, check out the billet-AL hinges offered by Sachse Rod Shop (http://www.sachserodshop.com/pdf/196.pdf). For a tilt-forward hood, grab a set of the tilt-forward hood hardware from a Buick and mod away.
