3" well, looks like 4" cowl hood. it has heat vents in the rear of the cowl that work very well.

See, the Harwood does not flow with the lines and shape of the car, I have seen it in life and IMO I'd get the 4" cowl and SS hood before I would buy a Harwood.
Just my .02

No, and I hate them. (previous owner needs to have his *** kicked)
But the OEM replacements I ordered showed up cracked.
I need to find another set.

Would that happen to be from

?

I was looking at that hood but could not find anyone with one, and was worried about a clean fitment.
