Hey Tony,

Any pictures of where you have the hood scoop attached to the hood itself?

Jeff here are some pics of the underside with the louvers. They fit perfect and if you use the drip rails the water drains onto the top of the tire cover. You only need to drill some small holes to allow water to escape from the top of the tire covers.

Hope that helps.

4 bolts and your choice of urethane adhesive. I did modify the scoops up front which was the majority of the work.

Wow, that looks great. I'm surprised no one has done the clear insert on a C4 ZR-1 hood yet, especially since the LT5 is an incredibly beautiful engine. The C6 ZR1 hood certainly doesn't look that good, just looking at the flat top of that blower.
The only problem would be if the top of the LT5 is offset from the body centerline. I can't tell from your shot Tony, the angle might be slightly off. Is it right down the middle?

Engine is slightly off center towards the passenger side.
