Default Sunoco cowl

Anyone here have a good side picture of this hood. I just got off the phone with someone at VFN and said the hood was a 3.5" cowl. I didnt really want anything quite that big for my car. Anyone make a smooth cowl like that with only a 2" or 2.5" cowl?

Any info will be much appriciated.

Thanks.
Mike

Dunno! I would need to drive the car in the rain to find out. When I wash the car the engine stays dry.

In 6 years my car has seen rain once. It was on the trailor back from the track. I don't see rain being an issue with this hood,
