the big block will have twin gold stripes with 1"-2" between them and a gold pinsrtipe to the outside edge 1/4 away that goes all the way on to the horns.
the 4" cowl will have twin gold stripes slightly slanted in the front to create a v they will 1"-2" between them.

I think that one solid stripe down the Big block hood would look cool, and have the outer "pin" stripes extend down the points of the hood. Whatever you do, Don't put the strips on the roof - that is a Mustang thing.

go with the big block hood. most people put the stripes on the hood and the deck of the hatch but dont go on the roof or down the bumper covers

I never got tired of the big 4" cowl. You get used to it within a couple of days and then it's not a problem any longer.
I'd scrap the stripe idea and get either one, they both look good...

Yeah, take the stripes across the hood, and the deck lid. The stripes on the deck lid should stop just before the bottom of the lid before the lights. Look at the heritage package cars. Do the same with a single, or double stripe.
JUST DON'T put them on the ROOF!!
