Who makes the best fitting twin turbo hood for the the Trans Am? I have a 1988. Thanx.

 

Nobody knows?

 

Twin Turbo??

Looking For:

87 IROC-Z 350 TPI
84 TRANS AM 305 H.O.

 

My friend got one of those Twin Turbo hoods for his RS (I don't know who made it and neither does he) but it fits really bad. It overhangs (it closes about half an inch further where the stock one closes) by about and ruins the look of the car IMO. He doesn't seem to mind it but I could never live with it. But from what I hear, it's a guessing game for pretty much any aftermaket fiberglass hood whether it'll fit 100% or not. I've never seen a fiberglass hood that fit 100%, there was always some defect that made the car look like it had an aftermarket hood. Some people love the hood too much to notice any defects, I however like a stock hood, it's my own personal taste, but a '91-'92 z28 hood with the blisters and the stock '91-'92 RS plain hood are my favorite hoods for these cars . But to each his own.

 

And when I say that my friends hood ruins the look of the car, I mean it looks like he rear ended someone and only the hood was undamaged.

 

check harwood they make all kinds of replacement and specialty hoods and scoops

 

There are two places that I know that sell the twin turbo hood, one is JC Whitney (who I wouldn't trust with a big ticket item) and Motion Performance in Baldwin L.I. Here is a pic of the Motion Performance hood.
