I was gonna vote w/o centerline, but looking at the pics a second time I've concluded that all of them are gay as ----. You're a ricer.

scottsi 12-22-2007 10:52 PM

Re: Camaro Cowl hood poll
 
Body is stock so far, engine mods are as follows

Poly motormount/tranny mount
SLP airLid
K&n filter
Pacesetter longtube headers/ uncatted Y pipe/straight pipe w/o muffler
MSD wires and TR6(step colder) plugs
100shot wet kit
Ram powergrip HD clutch (holds 650tq)
436hp/460tq on ONLY 100 shot

Plans are
Cam package to make 390-400hp
150shot to make 500-550hp/600tq
Ford 9inch rear end with 4:10 gears
315 rear tires w/ drag radials
Eibach drag launch springs

Hopefully put it in the 125+ trap area and ATLEAST a low 11 or hopefully a high 10 sec 1/4

The car is on stock rims and suspension. I have a decent amount of power and have only lost 1 race with the bottle so I'm trying to make the car look better before i focus back to power.

Re: Camaro Cowl hood poll
 
If i had to pick between the options then no center line but Stock is better. ---- the hood, buy the cam.

I'd say 2". I'm giving Scott the benefit of the doubt.

ow about E: no ------- cowl hood.

What the ---- do you have under the hood that would even require a cowl hood?

Nothing I bet.

Don'tt ------- waste your money on something that looks hideous and performs on function on your car.

Maybe youre right, Maybe i should get some blue coolant hose for added power :1

Cowl hood looks mean, makes the camaro look as beastly as it should.

Yeo, you got me there. ::)

The best looking hood for the catfish body style IMO is the factory SS hood. It may not be functional, but at least it doesn't stick out like a turd in a puch bowl. Cowl hoods don't belong on 4th gens. IT looks fucknig retarded, unless you have a reason to need one.

I know this Johnny. Unless he has converted the LS1 to carb, it is ------- pointless.

agree with the above poster. just get an ss hood. cowl hoods do look too mullet/gay/uncalled for. i expect to see an ls1 with a cowl hood pulling the tires and going 8's. thats not you scott

your thinking of the mustang. The SS's ram air hood was functional.

Not on the LS1 cars it is not.

LT1 cars, yes. Ram Air Trans Ams., yes.

And no, I think nothing of 99.9% of Mustnags.

The black car is sex. The hood fits the car and makes it look mean without gaying it up.

SS hood or nothing at all.

Re: Camaro Cowl hood poll
 
SS hood is functional, but if i wanted a SS i woulda bought a SS. Turning a z28 into a SS is gay, like turning a wrx into a STI. Whats the point of making the lowermodel look like the higher model? I'd rather it be known that its 'only a z28' than 'its trying to be a SS'. I was set on the 4 inch, but now i think im going for the 2 inch.

Adding the SS hood is not trying to turn it into an SS. Adding the hood along with all the badges is.

It doesn't really matter because it is your car after all.

Please explain to me how the SS hood on the LS1 Camaro is functional.

Notice a slight difference dipshit.

SS hood looks meaner than cowl IMO.

I still say cam though, when the bitch is loping at the stop light it doesn't matter what hood is on it. the sound of cams make panties drop.

CORRECTION...you wanted the SS but couldn't afford it :P ..the SS model cars are the only ones of that generation worth owning.. anyways, I had the 3.5" cervini on the 5.0...Looked good to me.

one2many 12-23-2007 02:26 PM

Re: Camaro Cowl hood poll
 

i'd leave it stock and get a cam instead.


only time i would get the hood is if i was putting down some serious power.

If scott is willing to embrace his inner redneck, becoming the second asian redneck in America, then he should go with a sweet cowl hood.

No centerline, thanks.
