STB with Suncoast Predator Hood

Hey guys,

I have what I Think is a suncoast predator hood on my '95 bird. I bought it like that, but it looks like a functional version of that hood.

I've read that most guys say no STB will work with this hood. Looking at it, its kinda hard to belive.

I'd like to buy one and am wondering if anyone has made one work. Even a Hotckis (spelling) STB would be fine, although I would really want a sphon adj. one.

Thanks a lot guys,

Igor.

IMO a STB is "eye candy" and doesn't improve handling. Do a search, I think you'll find that's the general consensus.

Yes, I did do a search and I did find that to be the case, but I still want one

I didn't notice with my first post that you've got a 3rd gen; the STB may be more beneficial to the 3rd Gen; my answer was based on the 4th Gen.
