sorry it took me so long to get back to you guys. the hood is made from a cervini's cowl hood just stretched.if you want a pic go to www.cervinis.com/9800f250and9701f150.html to see pics of the hood only in a three inch cowl. so whatever size we want to make the group buy, is what size it will be. that's why i need more info from more people and more interest or this probably wont happen.

3" or 4" would be perfect for me. Keep us informed, 'cause I'm interested.

I posted a topic on strecthing a glass hood a couple weeks ago and nobody really knew if you could or not it was somthing a buddy told me they could do but I didn't belive him but yeah I would be intrested in a 6 in cowl for the right price .later red99

 

[smokeshow]

well a cowl hood from cervinis is three inches, and so far i have interest in a three or four inch and a six. i need more interest from people to make this happen.

Is there something significant to these things?......or is it simply cosmetic?...If functional, and there is a power gain to offset the price of one of these hoods,...then great! Otherwise, I love the looks of my stock L.....just my $.02...sorry.
I will be interested to see some pics.

 

[smokeshow]

those are good questions. to the best of my knowledege it is functional i do not have the hood yet so i can not tell you for sure but on cervini's actual hood it is functional and i'm sure it help but how much i do not know. realistically, it probably just acts as a heat extractor unless, you have changed to a conical filter. then it will show some hp gains how much i do not know yet. but i will get back to you on it. as far as pictures the best i can do is send you to cervini's web site for a pic. because i do not have a digital camera. it will be the same thing unless you purchase a larger cowl size, which i still need an idea of what size everyone wants. there will be a three inch size and one other which ever everyone decides is the group size. i think the 5 or 6 is the way to go , but that's just my personal opinion.

Thanks smokeshow. I went to the Cervini site.
Looks pretty cool. I'll be looking forward to seeing pics of some others as they become available. Probobly not going to be very high on my purchase list though. High $$$ by the time it's painted and such!
I appreciate the info.

I just saw this topic. Now I know what I want to spend my $600 worth of saved-up lunch money on!! This is a must have.

Put me down for a 4" hood. I make #7. Come on guy's - 3 more people!!

Check out this link with hoods.

They all look awesome, but that cowl hood is way sweet IMHO. I think her hood is a 3".(last pic) I think a 4" would be perfect without overdoing it.
