Here's the hood off a shitty ford I used to own. I would love to have a nice 03-06 heat extractor hood for my truck. Roadster shop built a 2014 silverado and built a really nice one for it.

This is the one I have been wondering about, but I hear the fitment is garbage. I have fallen in love with that hood though. Thinking about finding a junkyard hood and trying my hand at my own 2.5-3" cowl, then grafting the ZL1 vents into it.
Really dont like fiberglass hoods. And I could care less about 10-15lbs.

I have the exact same hood wolftrk99, been trying to decide how to make it functional for months with out chopping it to pieces and it look like ****. Thought maybe instead of the plastic piece on their cut that hole out so that air can move through, not sure what that would do.

Ive thought about getting ram air setup off 4th gen camaro ss or firebird and seeing if i couldnt find a way to make that setup work somehow.... But would still need somesort of grille over the hole in the ram on the hood... Even dremeling out the holes in the fake vent on the hood
