you should search that company for the hood, they dont make good parts.
installing a t56 on a 2.8 would require some special conversion parts since AFAIK there i no bell housing to adapt the two together. Not cheap?

Re: How to remove hood and install aftermarket hood...?
I couldn't tell if it was fiberglass (but I'm assuming it is) so you'd have to test fit it, do any filling needed, prime, block sand, paint and install. It'll probably be a gray or black primer when you get it.
The T-56, that I couldn't tell you, I'd hazard a guess at somewhere in the 1500-3000 dollar range for it and an instalation. But that's just a guess.

The hood will need some trimming on the front and side lips too. t56 would be 1500-2000 just in parts and trans
