Nice looking ride.

Is that hood vented?
If so, I'd love to know where to find one.

Thanks for the replies guys. The hood is a genuine "VIS Invader". It is vented and makes a world of difference for under hood ambiant temps.

Nice looking.

Is that a clear timing belt cover I see? did you purchase that or make it yourself? I haven't seen those for sale before.

 Thanks.

 And john, it's not *really* my taste either, but a vent that large has me interested. It also wouldn't look very obvious in white i'm thinking, might just do.

Damn, thats crazy. i gotta agree with John though, the hood looks like darth vader ;P However I have no doubt that this gives you a lot  less heat under there. Would love to be there when you track this beast. Cheers!!
