The GT500. Does ANYONE have this hood on their truck?
I did a search on the old board before it went down and I could find no one with this hood on their truck. I would really like to see how it looks before I order it. Since the old board isn't around anymore, I didn't think it would hurt much to bring this topic up again to sort of build up the database. So if anybody has a pic of their truck with the 500 hood, puhlease lemme see it!
If you're reading this and wondering why I am not spending all this money on mods, it's because I have always wanted an aftermarket hood; different strokes. Hope that doesn't make me a ricer, lol.
Just a few more little questions. I am going to make the hood functional. Will I get any sort of power increase with the K&N conical filter I have? I figure it won't be as good as "real" ram air with a big purdy air box, but some air should still get there, right? At the very least I'll be running much cooler.
I haven't asked a garage for an estimate yet. How much has everyone paid to get their hoods painted? I'll have it painted black with clearcoat I suppose. I guess that's the way to go; I have the 1993 model, which is bad for the paint.
Oh yeah just one more. Is there a cheap way to ship these things? My buddy paid 93 dollars if I remember to ship his Cervini's.
Thanks very much for reading my book and answering any of the questions. I figured it would be better to ask in one big one that to ask in a bunch of small ones.
