I have found a lat hood and will try to make a scoop and ducts for a stock
hood.
The reasons I am not going to atempt a complete hood are:
1. Cost. I have a fiberglass shop not too far from me and was told it would
take about $1500 in material alone to make a good mold and about 2 weeks
labor.
2. I can't run a glass hood in BSP but I can run glass scoops and ducts.
3. There are 2 types of hoods round / square corners IE two molds.
4. I am hopeing to make the molds for the scoop and ducts for under $500
because I only have to make a single mould not double.
