Hood holder for Vortech

I'm having a little issue. Does any body have a picture of the hood stand in the new holder for the Vortech Super charger.

Mine doesn't seem to work.

Are you talking about to hold the prop stick down?

I have smelled it since day one... Joined same day Gem was banned, first two days he had something like 30 posts, has very lighlty and discretely favored Vortech.... Then, I had read him recently asking about getting price on Vortech.. and then all of a sudden he has the rod in the position Vortech suggests... and GC suspension.. not to mention a white car.... (wink, wink)


BUT HEY, I am probably Wrong!!

thats the plan!
but really the holder they supply works fine with the GC plates, it touches, but snaps in and works as designed.
