Mon Jul 08, 2013 3:56 pm by Admin


For the benefit of 944Hybrids users there are two search functions available for you to use.
The purpose of this sticky is to explain the "Advanced Search" function because it is much more powerful and is the best choice when researching information.

Anyone get one of these yet?  I've searched rennlist and several people have their regular 944 hood and have made favorable comments on quality and fit.

This would certainly solve the issue of hood clearance...

It appears to be a nice looking product and takes out the cross member drop etc. A perfect addition to the V8 swaps we do.

Yup and will give plenty of room for the intake. Unfortunately my Kooks headers are designed with 1/2" spacers in mind, so I'd still have to run them, but the hood would give me room for my throttle body and intake...

docwyte did you end up buying one of these hoods ? I have been considering one but was looking for some feed back before springing for one.

The way I figure it, by the time you buy the hood, pay for shipping, body work/paint/fitting its going to cost close to $2000.

At this point I'd rather spend that on the Brooks Motorsports rear wing. Which I also haven't gotten, lol...

Yup 2 k can go along way in some other areas ! I am still gathering parts and the hood I have looks fine and closes so no real need to get a new one, but it sure would look good !

I think i paid 800 shipped to the local shipping place, i did all my own body work and I painted the entire front of the car in my garage basically, actually turned out pretty good!

That picture is from a 1000 mile road rally I went on this summer, and the car did awesome.
