Default Ws6 Ascd Hood/functional??

Will the ASCD WS6 hood for the 98-02 Trans-Am work with the standard non-WS6 airbox? I have a stock 02 TA and am shopping for a functional hood, I would like it to work with my stock airbox, but also may want to put the WS6 taller airbox on it in the future. Please advise.

Yes it will work with the regular TA airbox I had the ASCD WS6 hood on my 99 TA for a few months before I purchased the raised WS6 airbox.

if im understanding the question correctly, i dont beleve the hood will retain any function untill you get the raised airbox, but the hood will not conflict with the closed air box

Well, pretty much the only "function" the hood really provides is a cold air intake. That will still function just fine with the non-WS6 airbox, but airflow may be slightly less because of the smaller opening.

So yes, ThunderChicken, you'll be fine...
