1st Gen Hood Vs. 2nd Gen Hood

I'm mainly wondering how close in measurements are the two hoods? Would the 2nd gen hood fit the 1st gen with minor trimming? No trimming? Too much trimming that it isn't worth my time?
But to be more exact, I wanted to try and put a TII hood on a SA. Is this worth my time?

fc is a much larger car than an sa/fb. an fc hood would cover the whole front end of a 1g. way too much work to make it fit and look halfway decent.
