im just going by your SC here, but im guessing you have a 94 Z. Well IMHO i dont like the cowls hoods too much...i prefer the SS hood. But do a search for VFN fiberglass, Harwood hoods, and Sunoco.

The nice thing about the VFN "Sonoco" hood is that it doesnt have that
"pleat" running down the center (cowl to front bumper) of the hood. And
I've read quite a few posts that fitment is spot on. That will be the cowl
hood I go with.
