If you want, I can measure the placement of the factory Z28 blisters on my iroc hood.

Re: Hawk Hood Blisters
Awesome, thanks for those shots!!
86 IROC... if you wouldn't mind that would be GREAT! i took my hood insulation off yesturday and noticed that under the hood there are 2 holes in the 'shell' of the hood near the nose, i hope the hawks bolts line up wih that but i'm not 100 % sure! Measurements on the stock hood would be great tho!!! thank you!

Re: Hawk Hood Blisters
I just got done installing my blisters.... It took a while and a lot of measuring but I think they look great. I didn't do the final install yet, because I want to get some rubber washers and lock nuts. I will have some progress pictures and everything if anyone needs them... I wish Hawks spent a little more time forming the blisters correctly, however, with a belt sander, it wasn't too hard to make them fit properly!
