Need help picking my new hood...
Hey guys, I am currently in the market for a new hood. I currently have a 98 WS6 with the OEM hood. I am going to be running a Super Victor w/ 4150 Tb on top and that leads to clearance issues with the stock hood. I have been looking around at some hoods, but haven't really seen any that I like. I love the look of the WS9 hood as it is basicly a WS6 w/ the firehawk heat extractors. I would like to find something like this, but about 2" taller than the WS6 so that I can clear my intake. Any help would be greatly appreciated and pics help even more.
Thanx,
Dan

Was thinking bolt on, but I suppose I could do a pin on as well. I was tryting to keep the hood looking as stock as possible

lemme tell you, its looks great but that thang is hard to see over. there isnt no laid back in the seat pimp driving with this hood on there,  gets plenty of compliments though and stares to when i ride by. love the attention  and to the clearance, i think it should do the trick as it has a big cut out.  to the mighty 4 inch ws6 ram air hood
