I told Bruce I was sure one could "have" a cowl hood with that combo, but I'd research it. Turns out, not so much. The cowl hood (ZL2 option) was AVAILABLE on the Z/28 and SS models, and came included on the COPO and Pace Car. Well, you could not get the LM1 255/350 in any of those, so therefore, you could not pair a 255 with a cowl hood. Period. 300/350, yes, in both an SS and a Pace Car.

So, right is right, wrong is wrong, and the facts are the facts...

I also talked to Bruce about this issue
Bruce is a good guy that treated me with respect
As Dan Fletcher said right is right wrong is wrong
To bad all of Class racers didnt look at it the same way Dan does
We will change the hood at a cost of close to 1000.00
