New hood
I picked up an all steel cowl induction hood for my 67. I really love the look of it but adjusting this thing has been a challenge!

Re: New hood
I've heard they don't fit well. Is that part of the challenge?

Re: New hood
It is steel and due to the cowl it is heavier than stock and may be causing issues with stock hinges. Having problems with one of mine so, I am going to bite the bullet and go with billets. Lots of $$$ though.

Re: New hood
Is it functional? If so, how have you sealed the air cleaner housing to the hood?

Re: New hood
Loosen up the fenders and core support brackets (triangle pieces between fenders and core support). That may get your gaps right with moving fenders in/out some.
