For those of you interested, I drove to Vineland NJ today.Had a chance to tour the Cervinis plant,and check out the available hoods for our SVT`s.After looking at the ram-air and the Cowl induction in person I chose the 3-inch cowl .The fit is perfect,the underside is finished with a Cervinis logo molded into it.... I would highly recommend them to everyone.The total weight of the hood is under 40lbs....

Vineland is a quick trip for me. How much do they want for the cowl hood?

 

Spiro:

Can you post a pic of the hood?

Thanks!

Spiro(or anyone in the know),
How much do our stock hoods weigh? And how much is the cowl hood? Just curious.

Did you have cervini's paint the hood or did you done local?

Do you know if they would color match my black bolt?

Thanks

2fast4u,

The hood comes in a white gel-coat finish.They recommended that I lay it in the sun for a few days prior to painting,So instead I decided to bolt the white hood on the Black SVT. I must say that I love the way it looks.The hood won`t be painted until Sunday morning, as far as color matching,not sure if they offer that option.

The hood cost me $429. Well worth it though. I was surprised to see that the Cervini`s hood is heavier than the stock unit.The stock hood struts don`t have a problem of supporting the 3" Cowl.I`ll be posting pics. in a few days
