Eddie Motorsport stuff is ok but some of their hinges don’t open as far. Ringbrothers is hands down top of the line

I've had both on my 2nd gen. The Eddie Motorsports rubbed on the top portion of the cowling, could of modified it, but just decided to switch to Ring. There both good, but yeh, the Eddie catalog is much larger, and most of this aluminum stuff can be easily modded to fit (as you know)

Don't have either, but will be going Ring on the hood hinges. Other non-essential parts that are just parts that sit in place like fender braces, etc I may go Eddie.

Probably too late now, but I run EMS on my Chevelle and Nova. Chevelle has been on Power Tour and everything with zero issues.

I've got the EMS hinges as well. After this weekend I'll be able to give you update on how well I like them on the car. I can say that the upon close inspection, they appear to be very well made, are smooth as butter and have zero slop.
