I just put the hood in the back of my escape, so tomorrow when I go to work I'll swing by my parents and do a trial fit and grab some pics. Be warned though that my car hasn't been washed in over a year and its FILTHY! The hood does appear to have the same amount of cowl that the white one does above.

I also need to check where I have my cam degreed at too as I need to pull it out and send it to Rick to install in my new shortblock. The end is in sight and the car should be running in 4-6 weeks.



Do you guys think i should leave the stock scoops on the hood or fill them like the white hood above? The original saleen one did have the stock scoops.

Here you go. I did have one fitment issue with the hood in that one of my caster camber plate bolts is hitting the hood. Its VERY close to hitting on my stock hood, and it does hit this hood so I was unable to fully close it, but you should still get an idea of the amount its raised at the cowl.

Here's where its hitting...



Here's it from the side where you can see the amount the cowl is raised, it was more than I thought, but I think its perfect!










Here's a shot of the underside (its dirty from being in the rain on the way home from Carlisle) and from another angle...

Your car is just gonna look sick once you get that hood & bumper cover on!
Your gonna have to send some pics to MMFF once you get it all done & get a feature w/ them, hell, you could probably make the cover!
Lookin good bud!

Rob, I hope to make it magazine worthy once again. It will be a while before it is though.

LOL! I told you I was probably going to get it! It is brand new, I bought it from Cervini's at their booth at the Carlisle All Ford Nationals. I saved a TON of money, and I mean a TON!

Interesting.
I wonder if I should just wait until they post up a car booth at a show or something then.
Because the price they have listed on their site is outrageous.
it will likely cost me over $700 in taxes and shipping to have it at my doorstep.
