With the addition of this integrated hood scoop, and a Pro Stock Rear wing and a 100 shot of Nitrous, the 335/30-18 out back and the Big Brakes....................it should at least look the part anyways. LOL

Nice 8).  Looking forward to seeing the finished product.  Be sure to post the hood when it's grafted, ya just might find people who want to make molds.....

Anything from generic motors is most likely to slow it up! ;)

I always thought that the reason why the teardrop hood and GM's Cowl Induction and the cowl induction setups in NASCAR were open at the back was to take advantage of the high pressure air at the base of the windshield.  Won't that mean you are trying to force more air under the hood rather than extracting it?

Well if you plan on going 150 MPH then that all makes sense, however being it is a street driven car and a FE.................not going to see those kinds of speeds!
