I did a search because I couldn't remember the name of the struts that I used to sell when I worked at an auto parts store.

According to one website, three of the big names in hood struts are Sachs, Strong Arm and Piston. I'd try to see if you can find a parts store that's got a paper catalog for any of those three or possibly look online. I'd think that someplace, the measurements for closed length, open length and the strength of the charge should exist.
