can anyone tell me the overall length of an original strap for these transam hood cars. Looking at the pic Dave W posted above, I'm assuming about 3" ?

I never found any of those for my T/A. It is a funny looking strap and they used nothing like it anywhere else.
..(but don't tell anybody that I don't have them on my car, OK)....

Ok, back the subject at hand. these just in 3.25" overall length + right at 1.5" folded over. And the ends look like the OE straps with at least what appears to be a very similar style clamping ends

Ken,
the clips look like they might be the same as the cowl clips on B-bodies , if so is it a #10 pan head screw

Thanks I never thought of that. If it is not to much to ask is there a compleate list of everything that is needed when installling a TA Hood?Like all the buppers that go on the fenders{some have springs ect. I know they used to be just repoped plastic squirters thayt would brake easy even a towel when washing the car would do them in. But heard someone was making new metal ones in limited amounts. My hood was drilled for pins and thats it! Measuements of the locations would also be

On the rubber bumpers look at http://www.mcmaster.com Check out page 3700 what they sell may not be perfect but it's close enough that unless someone brings their calipers it would be very convincing... & the one thats closest is less than $10.00 for 100..
I ordered a bag of these to check them out. They measure pretty much the same as Barry's within .002 inch. They appear to have a slightly textured finish instead of a smooth finish. Man, I hadn't realized how small they are! No wonder I never noticed them on a car before.
Here's a pic.
Do they look right to you guys?

Like all the buppers that go on the fenders{some have springs ect.
There are two spring loaded bumpers (one on each fender towards the rear)
two rubber bumpers (one on each fender towards the front)
and two threaded hood stops with rubber caps (one on each fender near the radiator support)
These parts are not specific to the N94 TA hood, and would be used on all the steel hood cars also.

This may not be totally complete, but it's close enough that it should help a lot.
I wrote this for another thread a while back, and this pic is from my own car.
N94 TA Hood
(AAR ‘Cudas use the same N94 code for their hood, but the information below only refers to Challenger TA Hoods.)
Came standard on all Challenger TA cars
Also optional after 4-13-70 until the end of 1971 production on 340+4 barrel, 383+4 barrel, 440+4 barrel, 440 Six Pak, & 426 Hemi. (being an RT was not a requirement, but most cars with these engines are RTs)
It was not available with A63 or A46 molding group, M44 hood rear/fender molding, or on SE or A78 formal roof cars due to the rear hood molding. V21 Hood Performance Treatment was also not available on this hood. If the car was ordered with J55 Undercoat/Hood Pad, the hood pad would be deleted.
Cars with this hood option will not come with a hood pop up spring or any hood latch mechanism. As such, J45 hood pins are required with this hood and will use rivets instead of screws to attach the bezel to the hood.
It was always painted organisol, not body color. Along with the hood, you also got the TA hood springs (not the same as AAR), TA windshield squirters (same as AAR), shorter fiberglass hood style radiator to hood seal (same as AAR), longer retainers on front of hood trim (due to fiberglass being thicker than steel), and the appropriate air cleaner to go with your engine/hood combo. If you had one of the optional radios, you were also supposed to get the rear quarter panel mounted antenna (passenger side) like the TA cars had to provide less engine interference with your radio, but so far the few non-T/A examples I’ve heard of came with the regular fender mounted antenna.
Once a production design of this hood was settled on, I don’t know of any variations of it through the end of its availability.
