I'm guessing this hood was not meant for HR motors.
so its hitting the plenum? can you get some pics for us?

I'd like some polished Meisters or Professors & would trade for a set, but otherwise, I'm hanging on to them for a minute.

Still waiting on my pictures from that dude.

yea. the aerocatch hood pins really came in handy and bringing down the warped passenger side. there is a lot of tension in the center of the hood though so I expect it to crack before too long. I can live with the way it looks for now.

no pictures until everything is completed..... lol

The HR motors are a little different. The engine cover is 2 pieces and once the cover is removed, you don't see the plenum directly. It's like another plastic cover that is part of the plenum. It's good for now. I'll go back to Korea before long and save some money for a new hood for next time.

Oo. did you take the engine cover off at least? i know absolutely nothing about the hr motor. i just dont want to see someone wasting $600 on a hood.
