looks good, is that a one inche spacer on the lower?

What hood are you running ???

hemiassasin · Jan 28, 2010

Stock Hood I hope and Yes 1 inch spacer lower.

sn95gtvert · Jan 28, 2010

i dont think it will clear a stock hood with any spacer, maybe a 3/8th's with some cutting.... if it does clear then rock on

hemiassasin · Jan 28, 2010

Stock cobra hood right? Well maybe have to go hoodless till I get a Cobra r hood I think that will fit fine right. :<
Modifications has been runnin rampid lately.

I bet you are def right about the hood. WTB Cobra R hood!!!!!!!!!!! please someone cut me a deal.

i have a 95 cobra intake on my car without a spacer and i can see where the front rubs on the hood liner... but under the liner there is some more room to be had with some cutting fiberglass/welding

it may fit it may not.

either way it looks killer!

any idea if a griggsheat extractor hood will fit, well I guess the question is... How much taller is than stock cobra hood. I guess this would be good to know before I spend time painting my stock hood. Thanks for bringing this issue to my attention.,

If you've got a stock 94-95 Cobra hood you have the same hood as the rest of the 94-95 Mustangs.

I havve no idea on the Griggs hood though. Good luck! The motor looks nice!

I hav 96-98 cobra hood sry.

Your hood will clear fine. I ran this setup (1" phenolic spacer, cobra upper/lower) with a stock 94 hood (GT) with no inner liner it barely rubbed, but fit fine.

BTW.. engine is looking good! im glad those valve covers got to go on a nice shiny engine
