Looks good all nestled in there! If the z28 hood is the one you've envisioned on there when you picture the car completed, then that's the one I vote for. Especially if you're going to keep the z28 badging... Looks like it's fit to me, depending on the air filter you put up top. Good work with the build!

thx camaro42 i appreciate it.yeah the stock hood was the one i was hoping to use,im gonna be going with the silver and charcoal z28 stripe kit.
