What vents to use with Hines Hex Vents Gone - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

I'm thinking in the future I may need heat extractor/hood vents to remove heat and give underhood air some place to go.

What are guys using now that Hines does not make the Hex Vents? I don't have anything against the 1LE/Z28 vent, but I have the rally stripes and I don't like the idea of a vent in the middle of those stripes.

2014/2015 factory vent or these:

Those Iroc style vents are badass!

Saw those at NCM during CFest. Fit was very nice and the owner said no issues...

Funny that I just found this thread since installing the Track Spec ST2 Z28 hood louvers over the weekend. Here are a few pics from the install process and the look afterwards. I couldn't be happier with the results.

Looks really good

How long did the job take you?

CamaroCracka · 07-29-2019, 05:23 AM

What size are those? That is pretty much what I am looking for, but a little smaller to fit within the stripes.

StingrayblueSS · 07-29-2019, 12:17 PM

I'd like a vented hood but not one that looks like it belongs on a house.

From start to finish, it took about 3hrs. I had to make several cuts to the support structures under the hood which was probably the hardest part of the whole install.

Thats cool...you don't like it. Find another option that performs as well as this one from trackspecmotorsports

I'd have to measure to get the exact dimensions, but check it out on trackspecmotorsports.com , that'll have your info there.

That's badass! I'm about to order this!

How difficult was it to install?

How long it take you?

Should I add the side vents?

Thanks!
