So after a few hours the rain stopped and it cleared up. I went out to working on hood alignment and height of the hood pins. After I opened the latches they then would not close on their own. I had to use my key as a lever of sort to get them to close. Yes I lubricated them with WD-40 as the directions say to do. Before I installed them and the first few times I put latched them this afternoon they were fine. Does anyone have any ideas?

No, it's not fed by anything in the bumper. And don't do what I did and cut a hole in the bumper, it's a bitch to duct. Remember, Sav made his bumper opening smaller.

Just got my valve cover back from the machine shop. It has a -6AN fitting on the passenger side that will be capped. The driver side has a -10AN installed to go to my catch can. The plan is to now clean the valve cover and paint it. I will also post some pictures of my FM LS coil brackets later.
