The MOROSO Aluminum Hood Pins are a lightweight fastening solution designed to secure engine hoods and access panels on performance and custom vehicles. Built from aircraft-grade aluminum, this kit provides a robust alternative to traditional hood latches while maintaining minimal weight penalty—a critical consideration for motorsports applications where every ounce impacts performance and handling.
The kit features 0.375-inch outer diameter pins measuring 4 inches in length, paired with 1.5-inch OD scuff plates that distribute clamping force and prevent hood surface damage. The aluminum pins are finished in natural (bare) aluminum, allowing for painting or powder coating to match vehicle aesthetics. Hairpin clips secure the assembly and are included with all necessary hardware.
The lightweight aluminum construction is ideal for race-prepped vehicles, show cars, and builds prioritizing weight reduction without sacrificing hood security under high-speed conditions. Hood pins are standard equipment on track cars, drag racing platforms, and high-performance street vehicles where traditional latches may be prone to vibration-induced opening or inadequate clamping. This MOROSO kit appeals to engine builders, restoration specialists, and motorsports enthusiasts who demand reliability without excess weight.
