I'm guessing Harwood. Here's the link, if it's them:

They are all I know of that makes that big of a cowl.

theyre fine, but theyre variations of cobra r hoods. i like the skinny cowl straight down the center. i know the SAM schools sn95 drag car has the same hood, but i cant find it for sale anywhere. im in no rush really, its for when i decide when/ whether or not i do the 460 swap on my sn or another one (hardtop) in the future.

Sorry, I don't really like this look. I just have seen their page in my 5.0 Mag. After really looking, I now see your pic still has the factory cowl things on the hood. Sorry, this is all I know of.
Someone that's concerned with room for an engine more than looks cause that thing is UGLY with a capital Betty!
HO Fibertrends makes the best hoods for the money and Ford trusted them to me the makers of the original Cobra R hood for their production Cobra R's.

WOW! That is my hood! I molded a scoop to the stock hood a very LONG time ago. Was too big for my liking. I actually still have it.

i think its funny when people make their v6 look like a v8, i had a new edge mustang pull up beside me once and he had huge chrome rims, walmart badges, blue window tint, boombing bass and a dual cherry bomb exhaust, and he tore off the line once the light turned green and his car sounded like a honda it was pretty funny
i dunno... i dont care if someone takes a v6 and does stuff to it that makes it look like a GT, but once you start badging it, basically telling people that you think you actually do have a v8, then it just gets gay.
dual exhaust, fog lights, GT/cobra wheels, (side scoops and rear bumper on new edges) are all things that make a v6 look nice... not just because it looks almost like a GT or anything.
its not like they left those extras off the v6 because they wanted the GT to look different. they did it because it was cost effective to not have to put fog lights on a the v6, or side scoops on a new edge v6, or put bigger wheels on the v6. eventhough the price of those items are minuscule, after you produce thousands upon thousands of those cars, the price adds up. if it didnt cost them anything to put those things on the v6, im sure they would have.
none of that stuff is necessary for the car to work and be legal. the extra premium you pay for the GT, not only covers the v8 aspect, but to pay for all those small upgrades. the v6 for ford's intention, was to just be a model that kept the car afloat. it wasnt meant to be flashy. it was basically just, they made it almost as cheap as possible, leaving out the unimportant extras that the GT has, while still giving it a little bit of "style" and functionality.
