I just punched a hole in my rust free original hood for a hood tach.

I labored over the decision, but now that the tach is in place I don't regret it for a second. IMO unless you've got a 100% matching numbers high dollar car or a survivor-type the idea of picking up a second hood just for a hood tach is kind of silly. I've never heard anyone say "Too bad that car has a hood tach."

If you are convinced you need a second hood, the metal repros are reasonably priced and apparently very good quality. You wouldn't have to deal with pins or new springs and it would require far less paint prep than a fiberglass one.
