There was a bad **** silver 427 brought out by ya'll to the Hooter's run. What kind of hood is on that car? It is starting to bug the crap out of me. I can't find it and I can't quit thinking about it. Thanks!

If anyone else might know, this is a ram air hood with 2 scoops, if I remember right the scoops are parallel to each other towards the middle of the hood.

I don't know if it's the same one you're talking about but try RKSport.com, click on the year vette you want, click on exterior, click on hoods......

Hope that's the one, hope that helps.

Jason that is the same hood I have. Sold by Eckers and paint by Richey Collision. You should have came out to the Vette/Chevy Expo both my car and the G-Force cars were there. Let me know if you want to hook up and take a closer look at the hood.

Yes, that's it. I'll take a look at it on the March 19th run if you are on that one. If I think I need to sooner, I'll let you know. Thanks!

That looks like a cowl induction hood.

Does the cowl induction work the same as "ram" induction? I thought they were different?

Very nice pics either way.
