Guys,

We would like to install an electric power hood on the Supersnake build.We will have an electric motor on each corner of the hood.The problem we have is finding a system that will raise the hood higher than 12 inches.I would like to have the hood raise up about two feet.

Anyone have a source for the correct equipment or any experience with an electric hood?

linear actuators come in lengths up to 30"

Yeah linear actuators or even a electric/hydraulic like most convertible tops use.A normal motor would take a lot of linkage or a cable and pulley system to work.
