I had some issues with the alternator rubbing underneath...other then that it was a decent fit. Scroll to the bottom of the link I sent and there are a cpl pics.

 

US exotics warbird hood. This is the last one he built for the LT1. It wasn't cheap to get the thing smoothed out perfect, but for an aftermarket hood it looks great. I don't have the exact weight, but its got to weight at most 1/3 the weight of the stocker.

i have a harwood 6" cowl bolt-on on the IROC,

i know it is a different generation, but the fit was perfect, and it had a very nice gelcoat on it.

i give one vote to harwood for quality.

 

I have 4' harwood cowl. Have had raceweight at 3195 before, but thats without me in it so add another 195. No spare, jack, all seats but driver gone, no front sway bar, 1/4 tank of gas, + bmr sub frames. optioned out 95. t's, leather, etc. No bose **** tho, yanked that a long time ago.

 

Glasstek 4" cowl

 

im def eyeing the 4" cowl.... a 12lbs one would be saweeettt

 

not aftermarket exactly, but not stock on my car..no clue on the weight but it can't be more than 35lbs or so... its pretty light. a hell of a lot lighter than the regular T/A hood. Its bolt on and i snagged it off ebay last january for $307.51. It was a test run hood for the company that made the hoods for GM (there were 25 or so) and had a defect which was a small hole on the drivers side in the little dip. the body shop fixed it before they painted it, but you can still faintly see where it is. but that's the difference between a $300 hood and a $1200 hood so it was worth it, lol. you might be able to get lucky and find an oem SS hood for around the same price

OEM WS6 hood

 

I will sell you my VFN wide sunoco extended cowl with the racecraft mounting hardware for $5o0 shipped! Thats one hell of a deal, it's everything you need to bolt on and go!

i have an LT1 style T/A ramair hood on my camaro from sunco!! i absolutely love it and i think it looks sick on my car!! ill get pics of it for ya soon

 

i want a pin on one..... they r lighter and more badass IMO

 

The hood isn't line up with the body lines because it is a pin on and has not been fit yet... That was laying on there just for photos.
