ZZZZZZZZZZZZZ!! Oh wait a minute, I said I'd try and post these at lunch.
This winters project so far. Don't mind the mess in the garage.
Made the front clip: Open, Tilt, Remove.

Not to bad. The hood just pivots on the back edge of the fender in the stock location.
Lost about 100# by cutting out the wheel wells and core support.
Added about 40# back with the frame work for the clip and finishing my cage out to the front.
those pics are right after I got the clip tilting.
I have since welded up the firewall.
Notice the opening in the cowl area, I was getting fresh air from the cowl and assumed it was presurised like a cowl hood. When I took off the fenders both ends were wide open. All I was getting was fresh air. Now I have it sealed off so it should help the top end a little.
