I just got some of these for my recent 84 sport coupe project. It’s a flat v6 hood so should be fun but the supports underneath are shaped like the z28 hood Louvers .

I am 1 hour South of the twin cities. I have an '84 Z-28 but I have the '85 hood on it with provisions for the fake louvers. I'm running a 406 CID SBC in it. That engine makes lots of heat even with the triple fans and aluminum radiator. These should work perfect for me. How do you keep water from coming through the louvers and getting everything wet. How much are these and where did you get them??

I'm thinking about doing the hood vents. I have a 1984 Chevy Caprice 2 door with LM7 5.3 .20 bored with the LSA supercharger on top just like fireball mullet just with ZL1 lid. (Not installed yet, working on stiffening stock frame) I'm thinking of going to the junkyard and cutting vents off the iroc and grafting into my hood, because I like how they sit on fireball's mullets car. Right there on both sides of the supercharger lid to get rid of a lot of heat..

Not really, moving or not, you are still going to get water in there. And not that water is an immediate problem, but it will attract dirt and make a mess, plus the obvious issues with electrical stuff under the hood.
