Are you still running the intake you were with the elbow?

ahh....wasn't paying attention and missed that detail. A low profile elbow would work I bet....I guess end of day doesn't matter as if I change the intake it would be for a sheet metal intake but the FAST should work just fine. We'll see.

Did you buy the hood direct from VFN? I love this hood and looked at it over and over.. much cheaper than MPD1 cowl hood. fit and finish looks nice too.. How much did it cost you and did you buy the "Latch" version?

Yes it latches....the fit and finish is very nice. It's a solid and beefy hood....I forget how much it was but I got it through Vengeance, they could order you one.

A lil too much for my taste, but it is def not a bad look. If it makes you happy, then who cares what we think. I do admit, that look could wear on me though.

Question

Can you get us some side view pics and also from the back side by the windshield ? Is it open on the back of the cowl ?
I have been trying to pull the trigger on this hood but I keep getting the run around on it. Was told it would be 5 weeks to make it 5 weeks ago from the maker! Just dont see paying for it and then having to wait 5+ weeks for it. How long did it take to get yours?
Thanks.

It's going to be done very soon so mid June...absolutely. Isn't that around the time of the LSX event in Commerce? It's several hours from Hilton Head but if you want a fast car fix that's it.

Closest track to you in Hilton Head is going to be a few hours...probably Jackson SC....House of Hook aka Carolina Dragway. Warning....it's going to be HOT here in June compared to Md.

I like it! Is it cowl open? That'll help remove some heat too, right?
