Default is this hood too much for my car? with pics!

later on down the road i am goin to go with a ram air hood. i just dont know if the 4" ram air or the 4" that extends to windshield is too much for my street car. or should i go with a stock ws6 hood? and no i dont really like the look of the predator hood so that one is out. so let me know what yall think.

Unless you got something big in that engine bay that requires that big honkin hood, then stick to the LT1 ram air hood.

My vote is for the factory WS6 hood. Another option would be the Predator hood. I have seen pics of LT1s with that hood and IMO looks alot better than the HUGE ram air hoods above.

i would keep it as it sits now... IMO driving around with a huge 4" hood is dumb unless you have one sick *** engine under it or if its a track car.
