Anybody know a good place to get a light weight hood with a scoop??? i have a 73 maverick and im trying to sjed as much weight as possible before next race season
MaverickMan sells hand made CF hoods that are super lightweight. The Grabber version wouldn't gain you any hood clearance, but he has a 3" cowl version as well. Do a search for him and you will find his website in his sig. I have one of his hoods on my 72... I cannot say enough good things about it or Derrick.
Ok thanks i believe i met him at the div 7 finals this year in Vegas.... i am looking for a little more clearance and possibly a little more airway(i like the scoop in your picture on the left)
he wasn't at the et finals. the scoop i've got on my maverick is from US BODY. they are in florida. the hood was almost $400. not too bad but the shipping was a killer. about $160 to az. the cowl induction hood that mavman sells is nice, the shipping won't kill you and you'll gain about 3", i believe. my next hood will be a cowl induction hood.
on second thought i think it was some one else but those hoods are sweet.... i might have to look into that further thanks
yeah i rember meeting you and him but i thought there was another older guy i met but i realize it wasnt him tho
Here ya go... http://www.maverickman.com/StoreCowlHood.html They cost more than fiberglass, but they are stronger and don't require any trimming and fitting like FG hoods. You don't even have to paint CF and it looks good! So you gotta figure the cost is the same or less if you get a crappy FG hood.
