Default Vortech V9 with Ram air Hood??

Okay guys, I'm considering a supercharger, my question is, I've heard to use the Voretch V9 w/Aftercooler, you must have the ram air hood, well, bad news is I've just got the regular peice o crap hood haha.. anyway, I really like the way the Raptor hood looks, so I think you can see where this is going, will the raptor hood provide enough clearance for the Vortech w/Aftercooler? thanks for any info!

You do NOT need to cut the Ram Air WS6 hood. The Vortech kit will fit (albeit just barely). Its only the Camaro hood that needs hacking.
Mine fits just fine, no cutting necessary.

Good Luck!

The stock Camaro hood is fine. It's the SS hood that needs to be trimmed.
