Was wonderign what a small (like 2") cowl wouls look like on my car. You dont see cowls on firebirds like camaros have.

 

I dont have a Trans Am, but i have a cowl hood thats no the smaller side.

Its all for aesthetics, as right now i still have a 5.0 TPI.

 

Thats exactly what i wanted to see, its even red Anyone else?

 

 

Here's mine taken on a normal camera and scanned through. There is pinstripes around the stripes, but the resolution sucks.

 

how bout this?

 

what the devil is that ... looks like one of those 6.6 litre shaker hoods from a 2nd gen.

 

im not sure if they came like that but either way that would KILL your car. and its only got a 2.8.hahaha. it is a turbo trans am thoug if u didnt know

 

YUP, 6.6litre scoop grafted to the stock turbo trans am hood.

 

Where did you guys get the cowl hoods from? I either want a 2" or 4". Are the undersides cut out so you can run a taller intake/carb spacer-are they fiberglass or steel? I have'nt done much research yet but it's soon to come. BTY they all look great!

 

How much should a decent 2" cowl run??? Last summer I came across one in a junk yard, fiberglass, but I had to pass it up cause I needed a steering colum more. Anyway, the guy wanted $100, and wouldnt budge. Did I turn up a good deal???

Thanks,

that would have been a great deal. The 2" cowls cost $430 or so from sports car design in Next Gen, so I'd say that was a good deal! I like the cowls, but am unsure what it would look like on the 91-92 style. If ANYONE has a pic of that I would love to see it, thanks in advance.

 

I just got a 2 5/8" scoop out of JC whitney, cut a hole in the hood, riveted it on, used some JB weld, bondoes, and sanded. And sanded. And sanded. Took around 4 hours total, but it looks great. If you want, Ill scan some pics of what doing it entails, I took a few pics of it.

 

post pics please!!

 

Definately pics, please ........

 

That hood scoop is killer, i really like that look. FYI though, its a 3.8L. Im not sure if you just missed the key or if you thought they were 2.8's, im sure it was just a typo. Big diff though.

/ Me LOVES the shaker scoop...........

 

That's what I thought, ad. Aren't they Buick engines, or something similar to Buick's 3.8's? Man would I kill for a TTA.

I've always like the look of the indy cowl style hood from usbody, reminds me of the C4 hood.





and is that a firehawk logo on that TA with the cowl hood?

 

where can i get that indy cowl hood and how much

 

goto http://www.usbody.com/WhereQualityComesFirst.htm

select 82-92 firebird from list and price should be listed.
From what I've heard it appears they have good quality hoods at USBODY.

 

I just got out of work and its 10 o clock, so my sister who has the scanner is asleep. I will try to get them up Saturday. i have a few pics of how it looked before and after, but none are all that great. Just for another angle of the car, and potentially a better pic, here's another of the cars. The black camaro is my 2.8, and that 67 with the white stripes is my fathers other son. A 454 .030 over lives in the beast. Yet again i apologize for the poor photo quality, it was headers or a digital camera, guess what i chose

 

yuppers.. my friends car

 

I have a turbo trans-am for sale.. its a second gen car but its still nice. If anyone lives near Massachusetts and is interested let me know. SnowboarderX142@hotmail.com

The car there isnt mine, but mine looks exactly the same. If needed i can get the pic of mine.

 

I can get you a 4 inch cowl exactly like mine, for 375 bucks! Its a Fiberglass bolt on, email me if you want one. Shipping is the only tricky thing.

 

 

 

I'm sorry, but I think you made a big mistake putting that on a TTA. Did you do it for looks or other reasons??

By the way, man you got some nice cars, how come you own 2 TGNs?
