I left it on to protect the dist,,,,, but than again,, if your car is smashed up to the motor,,,, you ain't winning,,,
with fords,,,what ya gotta watch is the hood bending down and hitting it,,
make sure the hood folds up,,,like dome it,, ya know ?

I always weld my hood down Lenny and then fold the metal from it around the fenders. Leaves plenty of free space around the engine.
