Are you going to fit some gas springs to ease the lifting?

Hopefully not...trying to maintain a period look.

I sold a Bugeye race car last year with a similar setup. Though the components are different I don't think the total weight will be too far apart...a bit more for the square body because of the additional flanges on each panel edge. The Bugeye bonnet was an easy one-man tilt...I think that if I can get the Spridget front clip rigid enough so as not to flex to much it will do OK. The square nosed Spridget should have a bit more weight forward as well.

Hi Hap,
sur hope my 1275 head is nearing the front of your lineup. Looking forward to seeing your magic porting job/head build.
