How long are the fabric straps that attach the hood props to the hood? I have a pair of original GMC hood props and there is was a piece of fabric similar to flat hood lacing, about 3/4" wide and 1/8" thick, one end of the strap was bolted through a hole in the fabric strap and the metal hood prop and the other end of the fabric wrapped around the hood latch rod and the fabric itself was bolted together.

Those things are rare, I've only seen one set that even had the straps. If you don't get an answer you could figure it out as the strap picks up the hood prop as you lift.
Best of luck
