Lot of the imports just use gas shocks on the hood like the rear door of a mini van pick and pull would be the best bet for cheap ones and size

A guy by me uses the spring from a an aluminum storm door for the hood springs on a glass hood on a vega . Or maybe try like princess auto or t s c . I,m pretty sure they have springs of all shapes an sizes , with long straight ends on them so you can mod them to fit your purpose ..77.
