Do a search for an "L-88" hood. I think you'll find what you are looking for.

GL!

There is a Trans Am (looks 84ish) for sale in a parking lot around me with that type of hood. I always thought it looked pretty sweet.

Thats because, IIRC, Baldwin did use that scoop on some of their cars.

It was originally designed by GM for the big block '68 and '69 Corvette though, and only for the single 4bbl engines, like the L88 and L89.

Its basically just a prettyfulized cowl-induction hood. It works exactly the same way.

Hrm, what if someone made the entire "inside" part of that l88 hood a shaker. Now that would be something different.

then............

you'd have a huge shaker...camaro and shaker doesn't seem so practical to me (nevermind, not a practical thing) just doesn't seem correct.

Camaro = cowl
trans am = ram air/shaker

But, that'd be a huge shaker hood....i think the only people want the shaker, is that they'd like to see the hood center moving when they rev the engine.
