Thread: BoostedPontiac's 99 GTP Rising from the ashes?

New hood! I finally found a GTX/SLP hood for a decent price. I also got my aeroforce wired in. Shes coming along. Now i just have to decide what color to paint the hood.

I vote Victory Red! Not like its a poll, but... red!

Paint it red to match. Any other colors make it look unfinished.

I was actually thinking about something like that

^^^But black

Too Chevy-esque for me but if you want stripes, cool enuf in black then. Just an opinion!

Love the hood! Been wanting one myself for a long time. And definitely red.

Did it fall off?

I see your at it...lol

bandook: Im in the process of changing cams. NIC to Custom Grind
Speed Demon: I found someone who has a built trans in their garage. Now i just need a price lol. I also have to start on the retrofits

The hood is going to require latch and hinge reshaping

That sux. The example you posted with silver stripes doesn't appear to fit real well either. Hopefully you aren't finding damage to the new hood. Only thing more frustrating than aftermarket sheetmetal is aftermarket fiberglass.

you found someone local with the trans?

Yeah, 7/8ths chain 2.93 gears, 300m, Hardened 4th, all of the clutch upgrades ect.

that sounds like a pretty good find...and a pretty penny..lol.

An expensive penny lol

Did you try adjusting the rubber stoppers and the hood latch? It took awhile for me to get my MPD F1 hood lined up just right.

The adjusters are all the way down. The latch itself has to move up. then it will be perfect

New Cam is in.
