just wondering what your guys' opinions are on the best hood for a black 83 z28. and if you have pics of them that would help

thanks

 

Usually the stock hoods look the best on these cars to me. IMO

 

Cowl induction (thanks thunder racing for img)

 

I like 91-92 Z28 hoods (with the blisters) or a small cowl.

 

91-92 Z28 hood looks the best. My second fav is the SS hood

 

I agree...I have a cowl hood but IM putting the stock one back on the car. I like the 85-90 louvered hood the best. They later stuff is nice but a bit over done for my tastes. I have seen them all and keep coming back to the factory stuff.

 

Stock.

 

1. sleek, styling, & sexy (no cowl, no blisters, no stripes, no louvers)
2. iroc louvers
3. older model louvers (non-functional)

 

I always go for stock but if i went aftermarket it would be the 4th gen ss style hood and the cervini's hood, i'm tired of seeing regular cowl hoods and "iroc turbo" hoods on these cars everyone has one around here...
When i get my car painted, i'm getting 3 hoods done a fiberglass flat hood, the factory louvered hood and probably the 4th gen ss hood (nice to have choices)

 

baddest... cowl... hood... ever:

i am going with either the champion fiberglass products 3" cowl or a harwood 3". my dad has the 4" outlaw hood, and it is great but alittle too much for the street. i am afraid that i would take out curbs and little ladies.

 

stock or a louvered iroc hood

 

2 or 3 inch cowl hood. I SO badly want one for my car!!

cheers!

 

stock iroc hoods look really good to me

 

I like the stock iroc hoods but the SS style hoods look pretty sweet too.

 

just bought the jongbloed hood.. ill have pics next weekend

 

AND A TON OF MONEY YOU BASTARD!

 

this is what I had on my 83 Z and got tons of compliments
with the tuff exhaust and power it had it reall matched well,but Now I like the SS style hood alot!

 

Well I have no choice but to say Cervini....I just ordered one today! My pics will be up in about 2 weeks! And I am replacing the whole front end and having the whole car repainted. I hope it turns out like I am expecting.

 

i like mine the most of course.

4inch glasstek cowl--see sig

 

I didn't say i was getting it painted anytime soon... i need a motor first!

 

Nothin' better, IMHO. :hail:

 

stock hood

 

oh yaaa!!

 

i was thinking i was about to have to represent. IROC hood definitly, but only if its an iroc car. Other then that id say stock for that year so blisters for the z28's, louvers for the irocs...etc

 

What hood do you think comes on the basic z28's from 85-87? A louver hood is a Z28 hood.

 

...

 

The SS is one of the best aftermarket hoods out there.

 

Ram Air II, simple, or the new jongbloed hood, its growing on me fast, its hard to decide, ram air II or the new hood...hmm...decisions decision....

 

Stock for me!

I love the SS hoods

 

hey Aaron I love the blackouts on your headlights. Couple of questions - How exactly are they installed (screw in?), how well does the light shine through at night, and would you reccomend them? Thanks

 

91-92 z28,cowl hood and of course the 4th gen SShood:lala: :lala:

 

First off, thanks!

They install using double sided tape that sticks to the sides of the openings, and to the blackout. Mine kept flying off at high speeds so I superglued (I know, ghetto) them on.

Light shines through ok, but I wouldn't drive without my foglights on. I have a Painless headlight upgrade harness (brings 12v right to the lights and uses the headlight switch as just a switch to turn them on, not a break in the power to them) and Sylvania Cool Blue halogen bulbs.

Recommend them... well, if you have stock headlights, no. If you have upgrade ones, not unless you have foglights. For looks though, I love 'em!!

 

harwood 4" cowl...

 

choose your pic!!! IMO both are great.....but of course, both are mine :hail: http://www.exotik.cc/mario/100_0001.jpg
