When I bought the car there was a 73 Hood with hole in it mounted. It was painted black. I also got the original Orange BB Hood, and want it back on the car. So the wiperdoor ect is going to be back on the car.

And the stock LS6 intake seemed to be the best of the worst intakes that fit under the stock hood.

Also going from th400 back to stock 4-speed transmission.
