Way cool, Guys! Impressive, IMO. Off post a bit, do these hoods have accomodations for the stock latch and spring?

Can anyone say how much clearance is gained in the TBI/Carb configuration. I need to gain a couple of inches for the intake that I want. I like the SS hood better than cowl induction hoods.

This RS is one of my favorites with a SS hood. Anybody know who it belongs to?

Yes, the hood uses the stock latch and spring(if you want it). I didnt use the spring on mine since it pops up just fine on its own.

Yeah, how much extra clearance do you get over a stock hood?

Lock,

Thanks for answering my questions. One more, if you please: Is the back of the scoop area closed off from the factory?
