I want a cowel induction hood for my 91...maybe 2 or 3 inches not too much.

problem is i cant find any for sale and I don't have the proper tools to make it myself.

ideas?

 

craigslist, kijiji or however its spelled
LMC truck supply carries everything

 

Carhoods.com has two to choose from for a second gen.
Cowl Hoods 2
Cowl Hoods 3 Many to choose from....

 

im atuclly gonna cut and add some sheet ot my hood on my 91 for my 351w swap ( gonna take if from both the outer grooves and take it about 2 1/2" up in the rear

 

i just started to do that to my spare hood its for a gen 3 though

 

ya it should look pretty good ya dont need much to do it tbh just a cutblade grinder and a welder ( a stick works good you can rent one form your home depot

 

im sure they sell them. if not for a ranger just get one for a similar truck and fix what doesnt fit.

 

I've never welded, and don't know how, I've always wanted to learn think this would be a good learning project, as long as I get a spare hood

or what I could do is wait for school and have the advanced welding class do it for me...they would do better than I would be

 

why arent you in advanced welding, metal shop was the best class i ever took in highschool, hence why i took it for 3 years lol

 

because I'm more into automotive, I took advanced automotive last year and I'm taking it again this year, the teacher has me move all the cars and do more of the hard stuff, the hardest thing any one has done in the class was valve covers on an 86 ranger with a 2.9(he knows my truck is a 2.9 and I rebuilt my heads) and I did it and it took me an hour per side and the teacher was expecting it to take 2 days and the guy came up to get it and he was surprised it was done so soon.

I've also changed a fan relay on a newer jeep Cherokee that the bumper had to be taken off to do, that was a fun one...that's all that really sticks out in my mind as being kinda hard

welding just seems repetitive, automotive changes everyday..unless its a big project

 

apperently you have never welded in a tropicana freezer! "i was an iron worker(apprentice) for a number of years useing a chipping hammer to break of iceicals in Florida what a blast hahaha

when your an iron worker its never the same thing twice other than a mechanic its always carbs head ac and trannys....

a marine mechanic is worse its always starts carbs lowers and wireing always!!!!!!

done all 3
