Annodized black billet hood hinges from Ring Brothers Performance

[XcYZ]

Here are a few pics of the billet hood hinges from Ring Brothers Performance (http://www.ringbrothers.com/). They are absolutely incredible.

What you can't see is the minute changes in machining that were done to accomodate the annodizing. The shoulder area was opened up so the bearings could be pressed in without damaging the annodizing, so theres now a step in each of the points that have pressed in bearings.

I like them black better than the aluminum color. Might have to get them now.

[Sales@Dutchboys]

Those are sweet!

[chicane]

Wow.

Them there... are some bad ass hinges. Looks like another thing to add to the must have list. :yes:

[Payton King]

Or is that a spy pic?

[Ricochet]

Glad to see you posted the pics Scott. Those things are are bad ass. I personally like them better black. Going to look good on your car holding up that carbon fiber hood!! :thumbsup:

Someone should make up a set of hinges for the deck lid that allow more adjustability and use the gas cylinders.

[TravisB]

Does anyone know if the distance in between the mounting holes on the hood are the same for a chevelle and a camaro???? I would like to use a set of these on my chevelle. Or do they make them for A-bodys?

[Rybar]

Those look Killer.....hmmmm looks like my next mod. :D

[novanutcase]

Hmmmm.....I wonder how those would look and work on a Chevy II??:unibrow:

[Steve1968LS2]

Hmm. I should call Mike and see if can do mine in black :)

Looks good, the silver doesn't look bad on my car given the other silvers I have in the engine bay, but I like the black better.

Yes I agree the black looks much better.

[Clockwork]

Wow the black is nice!
How much extra would the anodizing be?

[pushrod243]

those are sweet

[jack67rs]

Scott, Any idea when these might be available(black)?

[XcYZ]

Are those yours or is that a spy pic?

They're mine. Charley got a set as did Stielow.

If anyone wants them in black, just get a hold of Ring Brothers Performance (http://www.ringbrothers.com/).

As for fitment to an A-body, Jody and I have been talking about that. The hood mounting slots on the hinges are 12" on center and the hinge bolt slots that bolt the hinges to the inner fenderwell are 8" on center.

[Blake Foster]

those look really nice. i like the look in black

hey novanutcase contact me as we came up with a really cool idea for he hood hinges on the 66 i will fill you in if you want

[dplenzig]

They are works of art. I just received mine last week.

Daren

[ArisESQ]

wow those are really nice. guess i know what a percentage of my next pay check is going to :>

[Bowtieracing]

Beautifull!! I wish Ringbrothers would make more parts for camaro. After reactor i think they are one of best builders.

Never. I've learned to cope with my dreams though.......

[Todds69]

Might have to pick up a set someday...not sure which one I like better yet, might have to go black, but that's down the road a bit anyway.

Thanks for the praise :thumbsup:
We are building more parts =) And we have a build of a 1st gen camaro that will end up in effect producing many more parts.

Hey Nick, great to see you on this forum. I was thinking of having some custom made trunk hinges made, unless you might at some point down the road do them yourselfs?

Not that I know of, but if we do end up doing something with the new Camaro build I'll be sure to let you know. :cheers:

[TEDDYS CAMARO]

Any updated info. on the 2nd gen. hood hinges?

[67rsconvert]

Hey how about a lateral-g group buy from Ring Brothers! Let's get something going.

Hey how about a lateral-g group buy from Ring Brothers! Let's get something going.

I would be more than willing to work a group buy on 5, 10 and 15 sets respectively for hinges. Basically if you essentially have enough money to buy a set right now and are ready to pull the trigger let me know. Your vote will be considered a handshake that you want a set!

And in response to the 2nd gen hood hinges, they are in the build process. We're almost done with the door hinges, which have gotten a HUGE thumbs up to the few suppliers we've sent them too. So we're finishing those up, and hopefully in the near future the 2nd gen hood hinges will be done. When they are done, I'll be throwing the info up here.

[Bowtieracing]

I am intrested Nick!!!!!!

Let us know what the price cuold be .

Btw i cant wait to follow your LSx camaro build:thumbsup:

I can't go into detail about the Camaro build because we're keeping it under wraps, and when it's done Ill have a huge documented build up along with a video documentary on it. Ill give you one little bit of info though, it's not getting an LS motor... it's getting something a little bit cooler =) I'll leave it at that. PM me if your interested in group pricing.

Thank you Nick for your reply. Ill PM you about hinges.

One more idea; Could you consider makeing your own "build books" of ringbrother crations like Kona,Reactor and up coming projects? I would give easily 50 bucks each if done and printed nice ( Like orginal build books ) I have no idea if team killeen is allready writing one of your cars but-i would like to see em all more closely than basic magazine features.

Well your in luck sir! Mr Killeen is in fact doing a build book on Reactor! As far as the other projects, there just is not enough source material (build up photos etc). Ill touch base with Scott and see when he expects it to be hitting the printers! And replied to your pm. 2 down, 3 to go!

[zbugger]

Oh, to have money to spare.... I'd SOOOO be in on the hinges if I had money. Well, gotta go to costco for the two cases of Ramen Noodles for dinner!!

With you in the group buy that leaves one more spot for the first discount. If we get to 10 by next friday the discount will make a jump. The same goes for 15.

I gotta say, I really appreciate that comment coming from you. Been following the stable since you got the black 550. I saw your black 1st gen at SEMA at the DSE booth. It was niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice =)

[96z28ss]

[[email protected]]

Both styles. Another car I have a serious appreciation for, the 96SS. I was fourthgen guy for a long time, I had a glass reared 99 Transam. Went through rear ends like candy!

Love your cars, and your work. How much to do my "natural" hinges in black? Also, what's the lead time?

The hinges are freaking works of art. I get more compliments on them.

The build book on reactor has been in the works before sema,Scott is going to be putting it out in the streets for Columbus this year,hundreds of photos have been taken,I took over 100 pics when I was building Interior,Scott said take as many pics as we could.Should be one of the better build books done so far.

Yeah I sold my 96SS amost 2 years ago I wish I still had it.
You can still see the website. www.96z28ss.cz28.com

Count me in for the black anodized set. I will go ahead and ebay my machined finished set that I was going to have anodized. I like the way you did the reliefs to get the bearings pressed in cleanly. Thanks Nick.

I do have one suggestion. Mine were assembled with cad plated steel button head fasteners. For the price, I expected stainless fasteners, which is what I will change them to if you do not. The potential for corrosion is too great not to. Thanks again.

[Tony@AirRideTech]

Those are super sweet! Need to do some for the 61 B Body :)
