Default Hood for 5.4 lightning supercharged mustang

Where can i get a hood to fit over a lightning supercharger and intake plenum for an 02 mustang? I found a 4" cowl hood but im not sure that is even tall enough.

im not sure there is such a thing. a lot of the ones i have seen have a hole cut in the hood. if you can find a way to get the motor to sit lower in the engine bay it might work.

I don't think I've ever seen a lightning swapped mustang that didn't have a cut hood. You might squeek by with a 4in cowl and put a whipple or kb on it since they both use side mounted inlets instead of top mounts.

I'd like to see that in a 30 or 32 Model A "Pick up". No fender or hood.

You might squeeze a whipple supercharger under a 4" cowl if you get solid motor mounts and space your K member.
