Title: Cuda hood to radiator seal
Post by: B5fourspeed on June 03, 2020, 04:46:42 PM
Need  some pictures of the hood seal on how it connects on the ends.What side does the seal go on over the tabs on the ends.From the front of the car does the seal go in front or behind the tab.Thanks

Here's a picture I took at one point of my car.  This is the only detailed one I have so hopefully it answers most if not all of your quesitons

Thank you for the picture.You are right again Alan the seal could go on either side of the tab.Which way do you put the seal on?

Typically the backside as pictured above, but I'm not saying that's absolute correct :rofl:

I got the seal on.The AMD Shaker Hood does not come with the holes for the seal.A friend of mine drilled them before the car went to paint.They lined up well.Now only 1,051 items left to put on.Bring back memories TopCat.If Alan live in California I would tow it to him.He could do more in 2 weeks than I am going to do in 4 months.It been 12 years since doing my last Cuda.My memory bank is foggy.
