hood pins are meant for racecars that have no other holding mechanism.
they became popular in the sixties to make the car look racy.
if your hood has the stock two part latch then the answer is no.
the only caveat would be if the hood is meant for racing and has poor structural support and flexes so much that the latch can become disengaged or the sides rise up at speed, them yes.
