Thats sexy!

LTb1ow 07-31-2008 09:09 PM

And I am surprised no one has noted my ghetto rigged TCS/ASR motor....

Jam 07-31-2008 10:46 PM

I despise the Ultra Z hood . I think it's gross .

LTb1ow 08-01-2008 11:29 AM

And I think the SS hood is overplayed...

Jam 08-01-2008 11:49 AM

clearly why I'm going for the gigantic SS hood. because i feeel the same way. the ss hood is over played.

sweetbmxrider 08-01-2008 02:24 PM

wait, you think the ss hood is overplayed so you are getting an ss hood? a BIG SS HOOD? :roll: :shrug:

LTb1ow 08-01-2008 03:34 PM

We all can be confused at times, its ok.

The stock elbow does hurt airflow and performance, but it's not a big number. Since yours was ripped, it was worth it to get the aluminum one instead of the 1LE piece. As for the 58mm TB, it's really not any benefit until you are making in the 500 hp range so don't worry about that. Your setup looks fine, it just needs a supercharger and that elbow will be worth even more! :nod:

what don't you get. I don't want to be another camaro with an ss hood, nor do i think the ultra z hood is for me, so I choose the 3inch SS hood. (it's different ) ......if you need more help understanding I'm here for you bro.

LTb1ow 08-02-2008 06:36 AM

Well I am almost there, hopefully making 425 ish at the flywheel.... Lloyd said it was a good supporting mod so I listened.

i understand what you are saying. it just seems funny that you don't want an ss hood so you are getting an ss hood, thats bigger. i think the ss hoods look like ass on lt1's. i think i'll eventually do a cowl.

nothing but a 3in cowl hood with a hole in the front...its looks ONLY. the air has no form of direction, just blows in and out the back

sweetbmxrider 08-02-2008 12:22 PM

thats fugly

bubba428 08-02-2008 12:28 PM

not so bad on a 98+ but on a 93-97....thats just retarded, "hmmmm I hate SS hoods so let me get the BIGGEST one I can find" thats kinda claiming your 13s V6 pulls amazing wheel stands, or your stock 3rd gen runs 13s cause your raced this guy and his car runs 13s, or running around with no rear breaks for a few months( HA I knew one of you would so http://forums.cfmperformance.net/ima...s/hifinger.gif)

LTb1ow 08-02-2008 01:39 PM

Whats wrong with no rear brakes? I don't have any.....

Knipps 08-02-2008 01:48 PM

:popcorn: oh boy...

LTb1ow 08-02-2008 01:51 PM

There not gonna argue, you're just being to silly.

ar0ck 08-02-2008 01:54 PM

Unless your car has a jet engine or is a 10 second beast there is absolutely no need for a 3" SS Hood. Its down right gaudy on a street car.

Personally, I think the 96-97 SLP/HO SS hood are one of the sleakest looking hoods for 93-97 Cars. They may be "played" out but they work and you can't argue with what looks good.

It's really not gaudy, the stinger hood is gaudy .

bubba428 08-02-2008 04:54 PM

Jam 08-02-2008 07:45 PM
