Some guys have had fit problems with the ASCD although I have seen both and both are good quality.

I always thought that Hawks was simply selling the ASCD hood. Most of Hawks other fiberglass hoods are ASCD units.

I bought one of those hoods from Hawk's and guess what it says on the underside... ASCD. They are one and the same.

Re: SS Hood Choices for the Camaro ASCD vs. Hawks

Guys,
I talked to Bruce at Hawks today (owner), his hood is not an ASCD hood. 90% of what he sells is Hawks SS designed hood. There may have been a cse in the past where he sold an ASCD hood but everything he sells now is his own.
I have a friend with an ASCD hood already, this is why the question was put out there, and soon I will have Hawks hood. After talking with Bruce, I will be buying Hawks hood here in next week or two, thank-you all for your responses.
