A 6" cowl hood would be HUGE! Way too big IMO. Heck I even think a 4" is pushing it. 2" would be my choice, if you want to go the cowl induction route.

 

3" would definitly be the highest Id go. Aucutally I want one badly

Either that or the ASCD ram air hood. Im too lazy to search for a picture of it though lol.

 

I personally like the "high-performance stock" look of the power blister Z hoods. That or a 2 1/4" cowl. Anything over 3" is just gaudy IMHO, unless you're a pro drag racer. If you can pull the front wheels, then a 4" cowl is cool.

Don't get a ram air hood....the whole mixing generations thing is just no good. It's like seein a 22 yr old blond with a 76 yr old geezer.

 

6 inch? wow! Thats half a foot! haha! I don't think anymore than 2 would look good (unless you drag race, and drag only).

I dig the SS hood personally...

 

I think a 1-2 inch cowl with IROC "louvers" would look cool Well, it does in my head anyway :P

 

Look at my homemade incomplete hoodscoop on my web page... see if you like it... might give you some idea at least

I have the 500 series one. Works well because my intakes hit the stock hood.

 

Personally Im very pleased with the SS hood.
HERE is a pic of mine.

Also check out the hoods section of the Thirdgen Appearance Guide

then I bet you would hate my car mixing generations

 

At http://www.carhoods.com/wherethewildridesbegin.htm in the pics none of the scoops are cut out. Are they just nonfunctional or are you supposed to cut em out yourself? Thanks.

 

Dude that SS hood looks awesome where can I order one of those from, I was gonna order like the liftoff 4" from summit for like $300 I thik but that SS looks way cool if its still in my $ range I may get that instead

 

hey MRBoss429x u can cut them or have someone cut them out for you, if they are nonfunctional they still can lower eng. temp just make sure u put some mesh in there or somthing cause you just might end up with a bird under your hood
