this man speaketh the truth... the '96-'02 SS hoods are made of fiberglass and have supports made of metal... the '93-'02 Z28 hoods are all metal... the funny thing is that I believe the LS1 Z28 hood is lighter than the LS1 SS hood is... I dont know how that is possible, but having picked up both kinds by myself, the Z28 hood feels lighter.
