Re: What does stock hood weigh! I'd say with paint and hardware the total would be close to 50 pounds Terry.
So you are looking at a 38# approx savings with the pin on hood. Fairly significant <img src="images/icons/smile.gif" border="0">

Re: What does stock hood weigh! I don't want a pin on hood though, trying to get an idea for the bolt on hood. I believe it comes in around 25#, so I'd only save 17#. Not sure if its worth it. I wish the stock hood was 50# and the bolt on hood 20#. <img src="images/icons/wink.gif" border="0">

Re: What does stock hood weigh! LOL Terry,
It is heavier than the SS hood which comes in at 46 pounds <img src="images/icons/grin.gif" border="0">
I will take off mine soon enough and weigh it (Formula hood)
haha

Re: What does stock hood weigh! VFN has a bolt on hood that comes in at 18#s, according to their website, the pin on version weights 12#s. Wonder how much shipping is to Ca? <img src="images/icons/smile.gif" border="0">
It's funny how I'll consider spending $500 to save 30#, when its really only .03ths. What a rip! <img src="images/icons/wink.gif" border="0">
