Default Lets see your BIG cowls
I'd like to see some big cowl hoods on Camaro's. I love the Mike Moran hood and the VFN 3in SS. Before you flame I plan on being able to back this up with a set of heads and a TRex cam, N20, bolts ons, etc etc. I think the big hoods look sick and would like to see what you all got. Post pics and builder if you don't mind. Thanks a lot.

a cowl hood is the closest thing to a mullet for a car... Buisness in front, party in the back!
