Default restoring 86 and now drivers side hood wont come up

when pull hood release in car both sides release pop up about 1 inch
i can lift pass side until im afraid will break idk 7 inches?
driver side wont go any farther
tried the emergency rod from ecklers corvette supplies with no luck
any ideas other than drilling about 3 1 inch holes in hood over dirver side latch and try see if can get it to complete release then?
