The original design for the MI and MII were to use 4 pins and a lift off hood. The hinge was optional.

When I was building my MII, it was pretty obvious that the hinge was a POS. I spent 3-4 days redesigning the hinge to make it adjustable. It came out pretty well. Not great, pretty good.

About a month or so later, FFR announced their newly re-designed hood hinge kit. After looking at it, I immediately pitched mine in the trash, and ordered the new one.
