Does anybody know which cowl hood has the curved end on the sides of the cowl? In stead of cutting off striaght at the cowl they kinda curve up and the toward the windsheild a little.

I like about a 2" cowl on hatch cars, and a 3" cowl on coupes. For strictly a race car, I really like the 3" extended cowl hoods.

I think you are referring to the Cobra R hood for the fox's, also if I'm not mistaken Cervini makes a cowl hood like that also.

I know its not the Cobra R hood. It looks just like a normal cowl hood but the back where it cuts down is curved. Ive only seen a few of these one cars. Ill see if I can draw a picture of it.

Heres kinda what the look like. The one on the top has the curved peice while the other is striaght down.

Oh, I misunderstood what part of the cowl you were referring to.

Are you talking about extended cowl hoods that go back toward the windshield? I'm not real crazy about the way those look, and on a street car I'm especially not fond of them because they have to be "lift off" hoods since they can't tilt up because the extended part would hit the windshield.

Here's an example of what I'm talking about:

I like those hoods on race cars but wouldn't use them for a street car
