Is there a difference in firebird hoods between 82-90 and 91-92? It just seems like there is to me and I dont want to feel stupid for buying a hood for an '87 if its not going to fit.

I believe there is a slight length difference, and no, not a noob question. I don't have the specs, but I've read that there is indeed a slight difference between the two.

Okay thank you. I may end up swapping to an older TA nose anyway so this might help me some.
