i would be alittle too worried about running lean with the stock injectors but 24s would probably cover it and i got a friend that offered me a set of 24s and a pro m for 200 bucks

You probably should get a muffler shop to get a smooth bent intake tube, all those notchy turns are probably gonna be restrictive to the flow.

True, I honestly don't know how long I'll keep this setup so for the time being it will stay as it is. For looks and flow I'd rather have a larger tube that doesn't bend so much.... however I might totally change the setup and add an intercooler....

I should add that the hood hasn't been painted.... maybe I should have it painted black this winter?

The black hood on a red car really grew on me.


Anyhow, what kind of pic would you like? A side view?

Very Nice setup Jim!

I am a fan of Eaton myself. Soon to be Whipple.

I had a Harwood hood on my old 88 GT. It fit very well after a little sanding here and there.

Here are a few shots of it if you are interested in it.
