I dont know.. I paid about $200 for my set
but they are pricey..but I wanted something
small but yet could do the job at speed..
so far.. no problems.. I have a couple of
different styles but they are too large
for what I wanted
EDIT
You can see them here.. the set I used were
called the "MINI"

Those are for the larger ones which were the original.
I used the newer QL38 the smaller and less expensive version.

I wouldn't recommend the Q25's. they worked fine until I sealed the scoop to to the carb, then on the second pass they let go going thru the traps. that was 2 hood pins and the standard center latch. The Q38's weren't available at the time.
read the spec's on each Q25-150lbs Q38-500lbs.

that's what I was just thinking. Mine going on a 69 satellite and that's a big hood.

I like the looks of the AeroCatch brand.

I've got 8 of the mini's on my 14lb Unlimited hood. They've gone 140mph into some nasty headwind and everything is staying in place. I actually had two more to put along the side, but feel it's not necessary. It was a love/hate relationship and I still owe Al's son a HUGE favor for coming down and helping me get things lined up. Definitely a 2 person job. I LOVE the clean look, and haven't forgotten my hood pins once since installing them smile

I also like that the aerocatch has a locking model, not priced bad either. I haven't used these but I have heard good things.
