I've heard the holes in the hood where the rivets attach the AG box are larger than originals, thus the original style rivets will not work on the AMD hood

Not to steal this thread but do all the original Rally Hoods have the holes for the engine size emblems on them? Do the AMD hoods have them?

I'm not sure on the AMD hoods, but not all RT/Rallye hoods came with engine call outs. I.E. 74 rallye challenger with 318 had the rallye hood with no call outs.

I have NEVER seen a '70 Challenger 340 with anything other than the emblems on the hoods! NEVER a sticker with the engine callouts! And this is from back in the days when the cars were new.

My 70 340 Challenger has emblems also. It's also an original paint car, and I've owned it since 79.

Can anyone get me a measurement and drill bit size?
Even the front hole to scoop measurement would work. Would appreciate it. I paint stripped an original ralley hood I bought and it does not have them.

Thank you!

Here's some reading - MOPARTS A66 Challenger 340 thread - feel free to add SPDs & plants for all those emblem'd or decal'd '70 cars.
