I was wondering if there is a way to mount louver from a 85-90 IROC hood would be able to fit on like a 84 Fiberglass Z28 hood? Ive been looking for a company that make a fiberglass Z28 hood w/ louver but no such luck. Ive been looking at the big block hood, but I dont have $400 + to be spending on a hood right now and Ive never had the chance to look at a 82-84 Z hood to see if they would work? any input is appreciated.

 

nope they won't fit

 

Yeah, they wont fit. The loovers on the 82-84 hoods were painted on, if I remember correctly, and they were a lot smaller.

 

rob: the 82-84 z28 hood had decals that were applied to the gaps in the hood.

it is indeed true that the louvers from 85-90, and the 91-92 blisters will not fit on the 82-84 hoods.

also, 82-83 had the smc (sheet molded composite) hoods. i believe midway through 83, there were problems with delamination, the hoods would come apart. all 1984 hoods are steel.

 

Not true,I just got rid of an 84 hood that wasn't steel and it's not the first one i had on an 84
