Please Post Pictures Of Your Car With A Cowl Hood!!!

Hi, I am wanting some pictures of third gen firebirds with 4" or taller cowl induction hoods. I have found a few pictures of like,85-90 front end design,but I have not found any 91-92 firebirds with cowl hoods,which is what we have,a 91' GTA. We just got done with our new build,it is a Tall Deck 434 sbc using the Dart iron Eagle block,18* Trick Flow heads,Procharger F-1R maxed out,with a C&S Alcohol blow-thru carburetor w/electronic bowls,have been talking with Steve Morris,a procharger engine expert,and he says it should make around 1300hp.This is a Drag Radial car,and the problem is,I currently have the RAM AIR 2 hood,and my new enigne combo will not fit under it!,so we are looking into a cowl hood for it,I think we will go with Glasstek,they seem to have the best looking cowl hood.

Anyway,I would appreciate any pictures of our third gens(perferably 91-92 models) with cowl induction hoods.

Thank You,Brian

Here is a video that I took of Steve's 89 GTA w/cowl hood at the track, should give an idea;

Note: Not sure of the actual height of the cowl in the vid....

Thank You Street Lethal, anybody else have any pictures of a 91-92 firebird with a 4" cowl hood? I can't believe how hard it is to find pictures of the 91-92 firebirds with cowl hoods!! I can find all kinds of the 82-90 firebirds w/cowls,but hardly any 91-92 models,the few that I have found has like 2" hoods.

Thank You
