U.S. Body (www.usbody.com) makes both a 2" and a 3 1/2" cowl hood for firebirds. The 2" is available in "heavy duty" (bolt-on application and over $350) or "light duty" (extra light-weight for pin-on application, right about $350). The 3 1/2" cowl is one of their tech hood series, which means that it has a layer of air between the two layers of fiberglass. I'm guessing this is to better insulate the top layer. The heavier, tech hood cowl is $600. The 3 1/2" is also available in the light-weight pin-on style for $350.
