I recently replaced the hinges on my '68 SS hood. I got it all lined up and it closes good now, but it will only open part way. It opens enough to work on the engine, but noticably not as high as before. It is at the end of its adjustment, and I don't want to break anything trying to get it to open more.

Maybe your old hinges were worn and allowed it to open more.
