HELP!!! Can't decide on Hood??????
HELP!!! Can't decide on Hood??????
I finally have the money to get my new hood, but now I cant decide on which one to get. My choices are the ASCD Big Block and SS hood. I am about to get the car repainted RED and concerned with how the Big Block will look. Any comments are greatly appreciated!

both are awesome hoods. I had the same problem, but I decided I'm gonna go with the SS hood for one reason (also the reason for the big price difference) it comes set up to work as an air scoop, the big block you have to cut up the front to get the scoop effect, otherwise it's just a cowl with a fancy front
Thanks guys, I too am kinda leaning toward the SS hood, but a lot of Camaros in town already have them. Plus the big block looks maybe a little too aggressive for my ride since I am going for the sleek street look.

Go with the bib block hood. That's what I got. I love all the compliments that I get all the time. Trust me you will be very happy with it. But I do wish that it had functional ram air.
