'66 hood options
I've found several '67 fiberglass hoods w/ a small cowl induction scoop or 442 louvers.....but only flat '66 hoods.

Anyone know of a different source?

Thanks!

You might call these guys. They probably could make a raised 66 hood like they have for the 65 hood pictured.

Still looking....every where I've looked/called that has a '66 hood - only has a flat hood ('65 & '67 hoods w/ cowls no less).

Anyone seen a cowl '66 hood?

Thanks!

Or, you could just buy the flat 66 hood and the scoop of your choice and put the two together. Adding a 'glass scoop to a 'glass hood is pretty easy.

Good point.

I've been there - done that sort of thing, PITA to get it to last w/o cracking @ the back.

Thanks!

I've never had a cracking problem with 'glass-on-'glass, only with 'glass-on-metal due to the difference in thermal expansion.
