Depends on how you do it. I have seen some bad-*** rivit Cowls and Scoops. If I can't find one, I'll make it myself.

I need a Cowl Hood for my setup, I bolted the LS1 Air Box on, and need something with some clearance. I had to cut my current Hood.

LOL MERV! Geeze You'll be best going to Jegs or Summit. That's the fastest way you'll get it to you.

I know you clearly mentioned not wanting a new hood, but I would recommend getting a fiber glass hood, I have 2 custom made Fiber glass hoods, one is fitted on the 94Z28 vert, and the other one will be fitted on the cammed car.

the weight savings are amazing, the OEM hood was 45.2lb when i weighed it, the Fiber glass hood is 16.5, thats about 30lb off the car.

If you mold the scoop onto the hood, it will look awesome. Otherwise, its smarter to just go with a custom made hood for the price its gonna cost if you can't do the work yourself.
