So after some time tring to adjust the hood to get it flush I finally came to the conclusion that the hood was bowed ! I figured I would have to take the inner stucture out and push the rear of the hood down and reweld it. Naaaaaa!! Hey lets take the hood off and set a wood block in each corner and push down on each corner of the cowl scoop and see what happens .  It friggin worked!!!  We set the hood back on the car it was perfect!! Love my aftermarket parts!!!!!! Getting closer to BBT!!!!! |
Oh yeah, I have a GM Cowl Hood, and It also had too much bow in it. Tim and I did the same thing, I stepped on it with blocks under it. It fits perfect now.
