How does the weight of your hood compare to a stock one?

I think the pure physics of it sort of speaks for itself IMO.

Hey merv what all had to be done to get the LS1 lid on there? Did anything have to be modified besides the hood?
One of my guys here at work showed me this earlier.

Someone got on LS1TECH and took the pics that I posted, put them in a thread on
that website. I guess they were tryin to make fun of it.
The guy that posted the pics has a 02 Mustang GT that runs 14.3's, with a 2.1 60ft, so if he is tryin to talk ****, he can talk to my 12.6's, 1.9 60ft's...

Heres another question. If you went that far to cut the hood, you should have put a WS6 intake on it. It has a taller intake port that is under the filter, since the WS6 is ram air. It sits higher then a stock ls1 itnake, but if its sticking out the hood already, whats another inch. And the intake port might even sit above the hood a bit and act as a real ram air!!
What's up-The usuaul, working, messing with the car, pissing off some girl.
As far as the Intake I got goes, we will see what happens in the spring when I take it to the track..

Yeah man kudos for the work, plus it takes alot of ***** to cut into the hood 
Im sure you'l perfect it later. Till then say lates to the LS1s and rustangs that diss when you leave them in the dust.

You say it was .2 tenths quicker.... than what? The stock intake setup, a K&N CAI? what? You were not clear on that.
BTW that Sunoco hood looks like it will clear that setup. And if it will I will do the same thing.
