i love the hood. personally id put it on mine if it was made in the usa. id prolly pay 500-700 maybe more (not including shipping)

ofc the prob with the 91 nose...

Well....Since I made the original PS & still have it, swapping cars under it was a simple task.

I think the curved slopes of the raised section flow pretty good with the curves of the 91/92.


I think it would fit a 91/92 better, without the center ridge.

Definitely gives ya something to think about... I actually found a 91 Formula that I'm thinking about getting for fitment purposes for the new hood, but I may actually want to stay pre-91 if I'm building that particular hood - if for nothing else, just to get the prop lines coming off of the nose.

Can you post that pic under the Firebird thread as well so we've got it over there? Lets continue any discussion of the Firebird stuff in that thread:

ok. The first post had the pic and it is EXACTLY what i want on my 89 RS.
Any new news on the progress of that hood becoming a reality? im definately in line if so

the pic enclosed is just about exactly what is in the plans for mine, but different rims, nochback, and blue/black phantom paint.

would love the hood in Gucci(Carbon Fiber)

I haven't started on the Camaro hood yet, but we will be making a fiberglass version of the Jap heat extractor hood - As for Carbon Fiber - We actually have some in stock, but the stuff is so freakin' expensive, its just not practical.

Its locked and loaded! Ill be swinging through at about 7-8AM your time Sunday morning I think im more excited about this than just getting my LSx/LT1 fired up!!

Good deal! I'll be in touch.

i like the hood but i like my iroc louvers too.any problems with water flowing down into that huge center vent?has anyone checked into that?

Dante93GTZ

There will be ducting built into the hood that will allow for drainage. If the water comes down completely vertical, some will still get through obviously, but as far as water running off the hood, into the extractors, that will be diverted.

so im hoping that since you havent posted in a couple days, youve been working on that hood, i cant wait to see how it turns out.

good luck with the mold guys!

Yup - I'm still out west enjoying the insane amounts of snow with family. I'll be back first part of this coming week - I'm hoping to get started on it when I return.

Thanks again to Tricked-Out-Toy for the Camaro hood so we can get started!

How did I miss this thread. I need one right now.

They won't be available for a little while, but rest assured; They will be produced!

when the hood is finally done, i may have to drive up there to pick one up, and to shake the hands of all those involved, for bringing this "unicorn" to the states. JK, well not about the driving up there to pick it up and to shake hands, but it would be for getting this done.

It's awesome that we have some people that will still produce items for the third gen crowd, because it almost always seems that most companies, even though interested, wind up dropping the ball because they think there is little to no interest in things like this.

Much excitement is displayed for this hood, mine included.

So what did you guys agree on for the design?
And if possible, i'm sure we would like to see progress if you have time.

Thanks again Dante, for bringing this to the market. Cheers!

+1 for the middle extractor hole only. Please do not include the side two vents.
I'd like to buy this hood and the convertible decklid you will be producing. Please let me know if you can give me a discount.
Thanks
