No its not the twin turbo hood. its made by cervini, and yes the design is originally a mustang design, there is a girl on my site (her89305 I think her name is) that has a white camaro with that hood, looks really good in my opinion.

On the mustand it acutally has a few names, 2 I know of are Stormin Normin, and stalker, the only difference in the names is the size of the cowl. lol it sucks, my friend with a 93 cobra with a 351 in it, had to get a diff. hood, same style just bigger to fit his motor under it, that sucks, all that money and it looks exactly the same.

My ex-girlfriend had that hood on her RS. It looks pretty nice in person. Im very seriously thinking about getting that hood for my IROC. My rank right now is
1. Cervini
2. ASCD SS
3. Ram Air 2

I like the SS hood but i dont think it looks as well done as it should be. Its not smooth like a 4th gen SS hood, its pretty much just a cowl (which i hate) with a scoop in the front.

The Ram Air 2 is a very well made hood thats got perfect style and awesome finish. Only reservation is putting a Bird hood on a Camaro. Dunno if i wana do that or not.

HAs anyone seen the cover on the new HOT ROD mag on the newsstand? That '69 camaro on there is the set up I want to do to my car. An SS hood with hugger orange 25th (30th?) stripes, and get rid of that aero spoiler, and put a Iroc three peice on there. Followed up by a mild lowering and some 18" polished Iroc rims. How about stitching the interior in white or orange leather and houndstooth like the 30th ann. I figure if I do this I get the best of all the camaros I love.
