Default 1969 Camaro Custom Hood Vent Fabrication

This is not really a car build, but we had a customer approach us about building and installing some custom hood vents for his ‘69 Camaro. He liked the style of the vents in the carbon fiber hood on Mark Stielow’s Hellfire Camaro, but these would be steel. Stielow’s carbon fiber hood does not have the same underside structure as a stock steel Cowl Induction hood, so these would have to be a little different to fit into the opening in the structure without remaking the support structure.

Here is the inspiration:



First, Adam made a couple design sketches to land on an idea. The goal was to make a functional vent that would help pull air through the radiator and release underhood heat.
