i think i found my hood!!! Reply #1 – January 28, 2010, 02:19:28 PM The 10" Torpedo hood? You can't really drive that on the street. I don't think its technically illegal, but you won't be able to see anything, like curbs. I have enough trouble with my 4" standard cowl. Granted, I'm short.Beyond that, I think I have pictures of at least 2 80's birds with that particular style hood. Seems to me you have an MN-12 though and it looks like they don't offer the torpedo for your car. There are however many other sites that have hoods for the MN-12. Quote Selected

i think i found my hood!!! Reply #10 – January 28, 2010, 09:35:24 PM thats the company I bought mine from Quote Selected
i think i found my hood!!! Reply #11 – January 28, 2010, 10:38:09 PM I got mine from them as well, only it was thier other site, usbody.com . Mine is the Dominater 3" cowl. It's a nice hood but mine took a good bit of work to get it right. Quote Selected
i think i found my hood!!! Reply #12 – January 28, 2010, 11:59:06 PM Why Not try something a little different and all Ford, not 80's Prostock. Use the T-Bolt scoop on a flat hood or a 1982 Mustang GT scoop on the flat hood, cowls belong on a chevrolet and nothing else. Quote Selected
i think i found my hood!!! Reply #13 – January 29, 2010, 12:18:00 AM Not sure if the t-bolt scoops really work on our cars, but the 82 GT scoop is useless! I don't know about the rest of you, but the only reason I have one is because I need the clearance, so 80's prostock it is. Quote Selected
