[Tigers] LAT 79 hood hold downs

[Peter Laurinaitis]

question for those who have a LAT 79 hood...

i am getting one installed on my car (kent wilcox hood), but have heard that at
highway speeds the rear corners start to bounce up and down with air trying to
escape, and other than maybe some annoying noise, the concern is the center
catch might start to stress the fiberglass where the catch mounts to.

i have seen folks install instead a catch at each of the rear corners, like
this...

...for those with LAT hoods, have you experienced the rear corner bounce and
would you recommend going for mounts at each rear corner instead of just the
center catch that is OEM?
