Hood latch bracket.

The "Jags That Run" (JTR) Z car V8 conversion manual has a blueprint for a simple "L" shaped hood latch bracket that you can bolt on.  This is in the manual because the distributor on a Chevy V8 conversion interferes with the stock bracket so you have to fabricate up a new one.  It is very simple and uses the standard Z car latch (which you may have to locate).  I just looked but can't find my JTR Manual right now (it's been 17 years since I did my conversion) but I am sure somebody here has one.  Maybe someone here could scan and post the blueprint for you.   :)

I have a stock hood bracket that I removed by drilling the spot welds and a great latch assembly for it. $50 shipped? $30 for just the latch assembly. Send me a note to z240@shaw.ca and I can send you a few pics. Can sandblast the bracket if you like so its all ready to go on.
