Re: UPDATE CF BUY! 3/26/03
Allright, About that inverted hood. I think we are going to leave it the single invert. I have been getting alot of emails about different scoops and I think the safest thing to do is stick with the original plan. I have conveyed this to John and he agrees. If anyone has an issue with this let me know.

Re: UPDATE CF BUY! 3/26/03
OK the oem hoods are done. Here is an email I got from John.<p>The single inverted hood is fine. I will be pushing our manufacture team for faster productions. Part of the delay is because of the holiday seasons and unexpecteed bad weather we have in early to mid December. Since our factory is not indoor. Please ask your members to bare with us. I will keep you posted on the status of the rest of the group buy

Re: UPDATE CF BUY! 3/26/03
Here are the first prototype pics of the Inverted hood. The skeleton has been completed and it if any drops into the engine bay about a 1/4 of an inch. And this is well after the intake. More closer to the end of the front valve cover.

Re: UPDATE CF BUY! 3/26/03
Okay. I just received confirmation that the hood has shipped and it is currently on its way to me. As soon as I see it and give John the OK he will start production...About two a day. I know some of you HAVE NOT PAID the balance and I will not mention names. If you could please send me an email at cjthor@hotmail.com to let me know when you will send in the monies I might be able to spot you until I receive the payment. I am sending the first hood to Dawn Roth since her car is in the shop and she needs it for painting. They will then go out in order of first payment given. If anyone has any questions please email me. Almost done guys!!!<p>[ February 25, 2003: Message edited by: cjthor ]</p>
