Gorgeous truck, and great plans, Steve! Do what you gotta do to make you whole through this regardless the outcome. Keep the positive attitude and just remember whenever you need an ear or a place to vent, we're all here supporting each other and you are no exception. KICK THAT CANCER'S A$$!!! As far as the hood, I love that Ram-Air style from the 442 and if you have no luck finding a whole hood, there are kits you can procure from various outlets who make the scoop/rams you can have welded into your own hood for finishing. The kits are fully-functional and you can have them create an air-box connection for true ram-air style intake for cold air intake from that low pressure area we all love.
I'll see what I can do to locate a few here in Northern Ca. We're kinda having hot time here (sorry we're sending you some smoke up there too...) so some of my contacts are out fighting the fires and may not get back with me too soon... no telling.
Keep fighting the good fight and again, love the truck!
