I would think cutting the louvers would help stiffen it up as well. I know by taking a 1/8th inch piece of aluminum and punching holes and flaring those holes (like on Stuarts car between the rad support and header panel) makes it very stiff.

Is Mark Stielow livin my dream life or what?

Here he goes and sells arguably the greatest street machine ever built, yet he still gets to play with it every once in a while even though the cars new owner lives on the other side of the country. The man is livin my dream life...I'm tellin ya!

I've seen that hood in person. The underside looks like it's been modified, like some support was added to the hood to stiffen it. I could be wrong. It is definitely sweet...nice construction. I never get tired of seeing that car...I love the custom rad support and the hood latches. Like I said...it's missing a kitchen sink and then it's done.
