Maybe it's just me but I've never really liked the 98+ SS hood that much.
It's like a watered down LT1 SS hood.

I've thought about the different hood thing too, i've looked at like a 3" cowl hood, or even the ultra hood witht he dual ram air ports, i've just always liked the look of the ss hood. I'm still debating because i found an ultra hood for 300, but i'm not a huge fan of it, but i do like the 3" cowl hood that has not rib up the center. Keep the ideas comming.
Brian, I thought about that, i'm definately going with the ss spoiler that's a must on my list, and i do agree everyone has an ss hood, so i'm open to doing something a little less mainstream to score unique points but i want it to flow with the rest of the car as well.
Thanks for all the ideas guys keep em commingsigpic

well i bought the hood scoope 2 months ago and and it was 80 bucks so if you think about it if i sold it you wouldnt pay 80 i am asking 50 for it and then supplies to do it and you can have a hood done for like 10 times cheaper then buying a new hood, i did a ws6 hood scoope on my grand prix i molded this hood into the car and it came out great

One reason why Im going with the hood I choose. I love SS hoods and all but they are everywhere. Like mexicans in florida. Cant swing a dead cat without hitting one!
Theres not really many alternatives for LT1 hoods either. I like the "WS6"? Hood but its really a hit or miss. Right wheels,GFX, the works

i dont agree with your first statement, but thats definitely true.Originally posted by meissen View PostMaybe it's just me but I've never really liked the 98+ SS hood that much.

hood all the way. Even if you do get the scoop "right" the first time, its a collage of different materials - which means its going to have different heating and cooling properties resulting in cracks.Last edited by JoeliusZ28; March 25th, 2009, 12:46 PM.-Joel

Really? You like the 98+ SS hood more than the 93-97 SS hood?- Brian Meissen
