    Help with Mark 3 hood locks

    As received the mark 3 hood does not have the dimples in the hood to indicate the location of the locks. Does anyone have a x-y measurement? Thanks

    I put them at 12 inches on center so 24 inches apart and center them in the support that is on the under side of the hood.

    I go 13” off center (helps with pulling the corners flush) and centered on the rib.

    This is what I did on my MKIII, also to help pull the corners down better.
    Built an early MkIII years ago, sold years ago.
    Got Corvettes out of my system, and now back after 18 years to build a MkIV.
    MkIV Complete Kit Ordered 4/18/23, Delivered 7/11/23, 427 Stroker, Holley Sniper 2, Hyperspark, TKX, IRS, Wilwood Big Brakes
