Yeah that hood looks great. I like the GT 500 hood, but am not sure it would look right.

That all steel dominator hood would be a good touch to my supercab, and since you have to spray a little paint any way I'm thinking some silver flames,,,,,, hmmm better not go back to that site or I'll be pulling out the debit card, $$$$ "chaching here you go sir",,,, Man it's just to easy to spend money,

YES; like a combo hood scoop/cowl to suck the hot air out....but then again even if you were to get out all the hot air from under the hood, your cab would still be full.

That's why I sent them an email to see if the cowl actually had an opening/grill/door that would allow some heat out....
since my new house WILL have an enlarged garage that will hold the X, I'd like to get some of that heat out before I put it in the garage and super heat it

Have even placed a power vent in the garage that will draw the heat up into the attic...

(I know how hot the garage gets NOW with just the lincoln ls in it... and KNOW how hot that diesel gets

The cowl hood has a vent panel on the back side at Idle it lets out a little heat but at Highway speed it draws air in the engine compertment , due to the high pressure area at the bottom of the windsheild. Here is a pic of mine
