Hey Man, The Big BLock hood huh? They are really cool hoods..I had one on my 84 Z28 before a lady hit me and totaled my 84 :****(. Now I have a 1991 Z28 5.7 TPI and I just ordered the SS ram air hood for it. IT's going to be BAD ***!! But really....it' not bad to change a hood.....just 4 bolts...and your hood spring and hood latch....and your done. You might have to do some adjustments if it dosen't fit just quit right.
