3" Cowl

Nothing like the old cowl induction hoods. Nothing to me compares to the presence of a cowl hood on a souped up stang...

I think I'm going to get a Cobra R for my car. Where is the better place to get a hood www.cervinis.com or www.designconceptsauto.com from what I heard from a guy that has two hoods from design concepts the quality is the same as cervinis, just the back of the cowl is not cut-out with the screened vents. Also design concepts is a lot cheaper.

I personally have a 4" Cobra RR SVO scoop hood on my 90 hatch I got 1 more inch that cyberstang.........I would highly recomend it...but MAKE SURE you have a dist. cover...I went thorugh 2 caps b4 I realized when it rains that scoop dump water on it...but another bonus is since I got it...my temp stays down better because air comes in the scoop flows over the motor and bock out the cowl....so dual benifits...looks good and keeps cool...in my case when I go Carbed Im going to make a pan to seal up to the scoop for Ram Air too

I would say go with Cervinis but then I'm partial like that. I have the Cervini Stalker hood on my 94 and I think it looks great.

mine looks very much like this (except it's blue and I don't have the same bumper )
