Hey guy's, I just picked up an OEM hood to get a new hood built for the C6's. We have a few aggressive hoods already so this time around, I'd like to get something built that isn't as aggressive. Im still thinking a slight cowl, maybe an inch or so but nothing crazy. Also thinking about adding a couple vents, but again, i'd like to keep them relatively small and really clean looking. Im just looking for some thoughts and possible ideas for vents etc. They can be off current hoods, vehicles etc that we could incorporate into this hood. Ideas and opinions are appreciated. Thanks

I've forever liked the L88 hood but I'd have to see it photoshoped on a C6 hood before I could say for certain. Just tossing you a bone for thought.

How about a B92 replica hood with a couple of vents on the sides? 427 owners could retain their full length stripes, if needed. It would be a little more aggressive than stock and with the vents, give it a race look.
For GS and Z06 owners with "regular" hoods, it would offer a low cost option to buying an ultra expensive OE B92 hood. GS and Z06 owners could also add a full length stripe package to really give their car a unique look.

I like this type vented hood on the C6.

For something stylish, subtle, with a slight cowl, and tasteful vents I'm partial to the
RK Sport/Violator hood that SicMSP used to sell.

Pics (hope mcandrew67 doesn't mind.)






Of course, the Caravaggio is a nice look, too. Some combination of the Violator and Caravaggio at the right price point and build quality would be ideal.

^ Why does sicmsp no longer sell them? I like that look, but would most likely change the vents up a bit that way it's something different. How tall is the cowl on the violator hood?

On my 99 Trans AM the cowl was opened in the back to allow more heat off the engine. That would be a great add to your design.

Maybe guys can photoshop some ideas?

Hey Quik did u ever finish the new batch of hoods you were working on with the new mold for the cowl ? It's the hood with the side vents and vent on the cowl

0Quik Z06

Yes, we finally did. About 2-3 try's later. Should be getting more soon.what do you guys think about a slight cowl and some vents on the side of the cowl (on the actual cowl)

A C7 or ZR1 hood would probably sell like Z51 badges and widebody kits.

This is a ghetto MS paint pic but you'll get the idea I call it the WSC6. Sorry if i ninjaed anyones car pic used the first black one on google images.

mcandrew67

dont mind
I was thinking the exact same thing Pete, if you had a slight rise about what is on my violator hood then a carbon fiber vent insert running up a large portion of it on the side of the rise. I think that would look nice.
I will measure the height of the cowl when I get home, I did it once before for someone but don't recall what it was.
