I bolted mine together, than slowly filled the seam with weld, must keep cool to keep from warping,the back edge of hood has no roll so it will distort easily. Also welded the cowl vent just filling the seam with weld, because the vent and cowl have a rolled lip it takes heat better. Filled the four depressions for the emblem with a disc, ground welds down and finish with minimal filler. You will be adjusting the rear hood brace to get the hood to lay flat on the cowl, I had to shim with washers. Zeke
