Ooo...that's pretty. Are you going to paint it or just leave it exposed carbon weave with a healthy number of clear coats over it?

Thanks All,

Justin, as for the painting or not, that's yet to be decided...

Pete, I can tell you what a hen weighs but not the hood... Lemme see if I can find out... According to those that know, about the same as the aluminum hood... It has the huge back side opening that will help some with the underhood air evacuation... and I'm wondering 1/LE or Z/28 style vent would work... since the front middle portion of the hood is the area of lowest pressure...

I love the COPO hood and if and when I was to change the hood on Pumpkin that's the one.

So, Mike Burrell informed me that my new wheels for the back end of Brandi are ready... These are the 19 X 11 inch wheels to be shod with a Hoosier R7 315/40/19 tire for the mile... Representative tire image...
