01/10/18 Update
So here is the installed product. Still designing the optional split grill carbon add on piece to cover up the center radiator duct, for those that don’t want a large opening. This hood is good to go though. Even drove it in crazy SoCal storm from my manufacture shop home and it was good to go in the rain. All vent and ducts are for maximum heat extraction with minimal water exposure to the engine bay.

It looks good ! Are you putting some kind of leuver in the big opening (1) to split that up a bit and personally for me I think going with 2 side vents (remove forward one) wouldn't make it look as busy, but overall very nice job, congrats on your work.

2. Passed on the info to my maker. Should be doable.
Thank you!
I don’t see why not. This is 25mm higher than standard Z06 hood and the Callaway barely sticks out of the stock hood.

Talking over to have only two vents in each side, the car can use some extra heat extraction (especially right above the headers)

Looks awesome!! Group buy? Did you use the height specs from the 2.9 unit for the Camaro?

Two vents per side would look better - and angle them a bit.

Hood is stock Z06 chopped up for a mould. Underside will be like stock.
Yes hood is fragile because of all the bonding and cutting. So we are making one as is first. Revision can be made on the more solid new hood.

1, the highlighted red part in the first pic is will be the bolt on vent to split up the huge radiator opening. Some mesh grill there go stop large objects from falling in too.
