Interestingly I've driven many times with the  hood unlatched.   It might 
raise up an inch or so and then goes  back down. The only time I've seen it 
try to go up a little is when a truck goes  by. Of course I'm talking about 
-70 mph.  Higher than that someone will  have to tell me :-)

Actually, if you are leaving the hood open s couple of inches then you  can 
build an upside down hood pin latch. Remove the spring latch in the rear  
center, replace it with a shortened hood pin, then make a Z shaped receiver  
plate for it. use an R clip to hold the hood in the closed position. You can 
 reach the clip through the opening at the rear of the hood.

I cant  imagine a solution that does not use pins at each corner. The 
length of the  pins will allow choice of opening. With pins you could also lay a 
length of  hose in the center (about 1.5 or 1.75 dia.) and use the pins 
(adjusted  for height) to keep your hood from flying up. The hose should keep 
the hood  open enough for additional air flow.

When I've had hood pins on a car,  the easiest bumper was a piece of 1/2 
inch ID heater hose. 

That  may not work for your situation but you could potentially use fuel 
line or  some other kind of hose.

 A Tiger owner once mentioned  something he saw being used, but I can't 
remember what it was.

Hood hits air cleaner (hi-rise  intake with spacer under carb).  Looking to 
keep hood up a little  until I can cut up on old hood and  put a scoop on  
it.
