I miss my old CFI 82 Z28. It was cool in high school (1986) driving at WOT, getting to 75 or 80, then BOOM!! My hood would jump, the hood louvers would open and a quick shot of flames blew out the scoops. I had a lot of trouble with that engine, but it was a fun car to drive.

hey those are cool i didn't know those even existed, maybe cause I was born the year before!
My 84 has a steel hood with stupid metal covers on the hood. These can be removed, but would it be wise to cut holes behind them? Would I even notice any ramming effect?
