Default WS6 Question.

I searched, and it seems that you could NOT get a WS6 with just the flat hood. Is this correct? I ask because I see cars around town with WS6 Wheels, Badges, and Spoilers, BUT no ram air, and they arent firehawk hoods. So...what can you tell me?

The hood is part of the WS6 package, it's a requirement, every real LS1 WS6 came with it. GM did not offer a car with the WS6 RPO in the LS1 years that didn't have the ram air hood.

Just to clairify, the spoilers have nothing to do w/ the WS6 option. All 4th-gen T/As (except some '93-'94s IIRC) came standard w/ the "uplevel" (raised) spoiler while all Formulas and 'Birds (and all 'verts) came w/ the lower spoiler (the raised spoiler wasn't even an option). The uplevel spoiler was optional on some Firehawk Formulas however.
