Questions about big block hood

Have some questions about the Big Block SS hood. Wondering if anyone who has it can tell me if it gives you any more room under the hood or is it all show? I need clearance but am trying to stay away from the everyday cowl hood. Thanks. Heres a pic of the hood im talking about.

Re: Questions about big block hood

great, is there anyway you could possibly give me a shot of the bottom side of the hood? It would be greatly appreciated. Also, does it use the factory hood latch or do you have to use pins? Thanks.
