You say 'cut the center out of yours and glass this one in'?
How do the contours match?
Isn't the Viper hood FAR wider than the Corvette hood?
How much time and ability do you have?
It would be an interesting look.
Your Corvette might 'reject' the hood like a person's body does with some 'transplants'.

Alan

before I spend the money for that viper hood, I would take a junk 82 hood and rebuild it from scratch. Fiberglass is pretty easy to work and and i'm sure you could fab something up.
Just get some of that sculpting foam and shape something into the stock hood and glass over that. Something like that.
there's better ways to do it than cutting in a totally different hood.
