[Bowtie4Life]

I don't think that mine looks like a hack job, I personally think it came out looking pretty good, still need a little more tweeking though to fit perfect.

[Gearhead_Girl]

ksmyss, damn dude that thing looks good! I wonder if I can get it to fit under my cowl hood. Surely its possible..

yes it will fit under the stock hood. BUT, i cut out part of the upper radiator support, boxed it in and smoothed it out to look factory and leaned the radiator back. i have since cut the entire lower support out and i am going to fab a new one to stand the radiator back up and get a tade moe weight off the nose.

[96lt1m6]

The lid itself will fit under any hood as long as you cut a tray into the core support...also by doing this you will get much more air to the filter..
If you want to use the entire lid/shroud assembly you will need to purchase the GLASSTEK 4"cowl hood,that is the only known hood that will clear without problems.

[Gearhead_Girl]

Mines a 3.5" ASCD hood. I might look into it after I get this thing up and running good. im still working out small bugs.

Here's mine... I think I did a pretty good job on it. The pics were taken with a phone, sorry

And yes it fit under a stock hood with minimal rubbing as you can see on the neck of the lid. after i realized it was rubbing I took a torch and heated the spot to bend it down slightly and had no further problems

[JoeliusZ28]

how did you attach the MAF to the lid?

[96lt1m6]

how did you attach the MAF to the lid?

The lid end is a little bit bigger than the MAF allowing it to slip over and be hose clamped.

[GreenDraziL]

Could take the easy way out...
