I'd vote for staying with the bolt-on 2.5" Cowl Harwood.

It would make the Battle Tuna look ready for some action!

LOL. Yep. Never heard anyone refer to their car this way. In a lot of your posts, you seem kinda down on your car.....but calling it a Battle Tuna seems to be saying it's actually a sleeper and don't underestimate it.

I've got the Harwood 2 1/2" Cowl on my car and it's a nice fit visually

Much easier to deal with than Pin-On too

Almost Any aftermarket hood should really be pinned on. they are rather flimsy. But getting a hinged/bolt on hood makes opening it alot easier. and just pin it too. especially around/near the headlights on the LT1 cars. they curl up right there.

Ah...Thanks Pizza!!!

I wonder if Harwood ever sells slightly dented hoods at a much lower price. Maybe a hood that got dented in shipping. I can't find a Harwood 12201 on EBay or anywhere else at a cheaper price than the $535 list price.

Ill keep my eyes on the classified as well, one might turn up, but the hood is on the end of my to do list.
