SCC hoods The Ultra Z hood that they carry has the mod to change intake to the C5 filter and in the same style as the prior SS. (on top) Has anyone used this do we know if its worth a damn? I love the Ultra Z idea and I've seen one featured on TV on a Silver Camaro that had heat extractors. Is SCC the only one that makes this style with the 2 reverse hood scoops? I like the idea of having dedicated air to the airbox but being able to cool surrounding bay. On the flipside doesnt SCC have MAJOR probs laying fiberglass? I need HELP!!!! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="gr_eek2.gif" />

Re: SCC hoods You might just be right about that, their site is a bit lacking on pics for such prices. I thought it was dual extractors stretched or a crescent shape in the rear of the hood. I would love to see the underside to see if it like the direct ram of the Ultra Z. Thanks for the great site though. <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />
