Its a hood, most will line up w/ a little tinkering, if your so concerned go OEM. That's obviously the "best"

This pretty much sums it up.

OEM will fit best, everything else is going take a little work at best.

Trufiber is supposed to be pretty good quality. VFN products are very high quality also.

Glasstek and Trufiber are good quality if your wanting a SS replica. The VFN ss hood in 3 inches high.

I was steered away from the duraflex by a sponsor.

I know the LT1 SS Trufiber is darn near perfect. Id go with that one.

Heard duraflex was crap, but have no experience with them.

Trufibers can be gotten from WS6store
