| 4 pins because, Yes, it is a pin-on hood. It is a VFN hood. They just came out with these about 2 weeks ago. I think I'm the first GTO owner to even get one. Fits great and looks great. Plus I went from a 45+lb hood to a 14lb hood. I need that weight saving with the 100lbs I'm slapping on top of that motor in a week or so. | |

| Got a Magnacharger 122HH. Should make some good power. Hopefully it will perform better than that stroker I had in it before. | |

| yep, dumb fucker said so and so said it would work, and my old man said " does this person have it in his car still?" kid said, well no, he took it out cause gas prices went too high... i bet he took it out cause it was taking too much time to sweep up the scattered parts all over the ground. | |

| I've been hitting 9500 rpm's the last few years. I can't imagine going to a limiter less than 7K. Guess it helps if your Tq comes on at 2000 rpm's but I like having a long flat power curve that will hold out until I wanna shift.
Gotta love a supercharger for quick low end power. Not to mention a nice mean sound. Keep the pictures and updates coming. | |

That was definately one of the selling points for me. Glasstek just came out with a hood for the GTO also, but it's ugly as hell. DMS had a cowl hood too, but it's got an indention running right down the center of it that doesn't go with the cars lines at all. This, to me is the best one I've seen made for the GTO's so far. | |
