Z-28 Hoods

Just another quick question. On the site that I'm gonna order my hood on, there's a $60 difference on a hood for a 1991/1992 Z-28 Hood and the IROC hood. What's the difference???!!!!!!

Any why would an RS hood cost more (by just about $100) than the Z-28 hood?
Any feedback is appreciated...

Yeah, but half the time I see those hoods for sale, it's without the blisters or louvers....you always have to buy them seperately. I think what he's asking is, are the size of the louvers and blisters the same?

I've kind of wondered that myself.

Well....I think the difference is is that the holes for the power blisters (91-92 Z) and the holes for the louvers (85-90 IROC's & Z's) are in different positions.

I went to the dealer to try to get a hood for my 83 it was discontinued so I asked about the 85-90 iroc hood and the 91-92 Z28 hood he told me that they were the same part numbers just different bolt on's

Nope, they are interchangeable. My Sport Coupe has blisters on a 86 IROC hood.
