I just got my new hood in and rested it on the car for a test fit. need to take the die grinder to it to fit it correctly. My friend is going to paint it in his shop when i buy the paint.the funny part is i thought i needed a big cowl to clear my intake after the swap. I didn't, it clears by 3 inches.LOL

I have a 351w in my car and I got away with a 2.5 inch cowl. I always thought that 4 inch cowls better have Big Blocks under them.

The cowl has a wider rake then the one on your vert.thats probably why it looks bigger.sitting in it i dont think their is much of a blind spot at all.

I just moved the latch striker that came on the hood and now it fits great.
