Cowl induction hood search and mod

Anyone know if they make a hood exactly like this for firebirds. If so who sells em. Thanks. If I can't find it anywhere what do you think about cutting the headlight openings out of a camaro hood? I know the width is the same but unsure about the length and the slope.

hey man, im not sure but i would say mabye harwood could have a scoop like that. The firebird and camaro hoods have a different slope to them. The firebird fenders are more of a steep slope than a camaros. So you wouldnt be able to swap out the hoods.

Kick ***! The vfn was the 4" cowl. But the harwood was the one. Funny that on the harwood site it doesn't have that hood listed. Thank you summit!
