New hood

[greenmachine]

i need bigger than 2 im thinking a 3 inch harwood... that looks almost identical to the yellow one in that pic... now i have to decide if i want the steel which isnt as light but will still use the stock hardware... or a fiberglass with hood pins of some sort which is alot lighter and cost 100 bucks less...

get the fiberglass one because the hood pins just look so sexy

sorry i named the wrong hood!!!! Twin Turbo 2.5" Hood!!!! Thats the one I meant.The one that looks mean as a mofo! its like the third one down. Thats the one I wanted to vote for.

i like that one too but i cant seem to find a front shot of the hood just the side shots... i wanna see it down the middle see how the body lines are on it... thats the daytona hood... the twin turbo hood i like besides the little ribbes on the back of the cowl... which i could always smooth out. i wanna try to find a front shot of the daytona hood before i decide..

hahahaha. i think so too. But then again see if you can find that hood you found on ebay. there HAS to be another one floating around! Trust me!

I like that hood too, with the right paint and stripe combo it'd look amazing.

i found a front shot and it does look nice its flares out on the sides there were you see the vents... but its still only a 2 inch cowl which would be fine but thats only for the back half not the whole length of the engine bay... which wont clear a supercharger even a small one... so im thinking i might go with the twin turbo hood and then just smooth it out in the back... yep i made up my mind the twin turbo hood it is...

Unfortunately the third gen birds have such a sloping hood that we need aftermarket hoods to do anything... of course the LS1 is nice and low-pro...

*nudge*

I think this LT5 would solve your problems




or go all lame like those 4th genners

[wezeles]

ya but then the 4th genr's wont cry as much when they get beat by a 20 year old small block... its just not the same..

That's the same hood the previous owner of my Camaro has on his current car, a 3rd gen IROC Z28. It looks totally sexy on that car, I think you should get it. . . .

i really like that one too goes great with the body lines but like i said its too short in the front... and when i decide to go turbo or supercharged here in the future im going to need the clearance... and with the twin turbo hood it will give me a another 3 inches on top and then it has 2 inches above the valve covers where a turbo would sit... and im thinking might cut out the holes in the front make it a fuctional ram air with 2 high flow filters attached to the hood and then run it into a carb bonnet if i keep the carb or go to a 4 barrel TBI it will still work for whichever direction i finnaly go with the car, it may not be my favorite for looks but for function its the best one i can find and still on my top 3 favorite style so im good with it..
