Does it come down straight until the point when it strikes the latch ? The latch is adjustable , but all this depends on the rad support being in the proper position as the latch is fastened to it . There are two bolts bolting the support to the frame , check to see if thee are tight .
the whole latch comes off with four bolts , take that off and see if the hood lines up . This will tell you if the hood is the problem or the latch point .
