grimreaper, id love to have a ram air hood i thought when you said you were gonna make a hood for this model that it was a cowl hood, id so much rather have a ram air style hood, if that is what your makeing ill wait and use the scoop for something else let me know when i can buy one and how much thanks

ericstone, i bought the hoood off a fellow on ebay who does resin parts, i cant remember his name but the gaps werent right the end of the hood pretty much came to a point, just want happy with it, and i dont know if youd say drg truck, its more along the lines of a weekend toy, that could win a race or two and a show all in the same weekend kind of build, this build is bascily what id like to do to an s-10 some day even tho v-8's in s-10's have been done millions of times, its just something ive always found very cool thanks
