How much weight can I save by switching hoods?
Member
I just switched hoods from a stock IROC style to a fiberglass cowl induction. THe cowl induction hood already had the bottom of the raised area sealed off unlike most that I've seen, so it weighs a little bit more. Anyway, my estimation from carrying both hoods is that the stock steel one is around 65-70 lbs, and the glass hood is around 35 lbs.
