i have 2 questions, i want to install a ws 6 style ram air hood on my 91 bird, i allready have ram air hoses , i want the scoops to just let in air to cool the motor, somone told me that it may create a vacuum under the hood and lift the car up at high speed............is this bs? also, whos got the best deal as far as price and craftsmanship go on the hood? tia

 

I had the ASCD Ram Air 2 hood for awhile and the car never felt light on the front at 140+mph.

I also had the Ram Air Hoods Ram Air 2 hood as well.
Both brands have very good craftsmanship.

I ended up with an ASCD Ram Air 1 hood since it fits the look of my Formula better.

 

i was reading some search, is the hawks hood the same exact one as ascd? i also found an ascd hood on ebay, but they want $252 for shipping , ouch

 

I believe the one from Hawks is made by ASCD.
Normally shipping is around $130 shipped by truck frieght.

 

just bought it from hawks on ebay for $359 , good price , hope they dont bang me on shipping

 

I have the RA2 hood on my bird and at about 70+ the hood will lift in the back by about 1"-2" It used to scare the bejesus out of me, but now I'm used to it and don't even notice it anymore.

 

ive had my car up to 150 and the hood is as stable as can be.

 

in the back? how is this possible, isnt that where it bolts to the hinges?

 

The hinges are there, but I don't have any struts/lifts on it so it will move a little as the hood is very light.

 

did you have to remove your struts in order to be able to open the hood? i was wondering about this...............

 

light? my hood is heavy as hell 85 pounds

 

maybe too much paint?
