Default HOOD CHOICE HELP PLEASE

hey everyone, thanks for taking the time, looking into getting a cowl induction hood, i love the way the rediculous size of the six inch cowl is i just cant decide if i should get the extended cowl or the regular one, either way i'm going with a pin on simply because of price, and i swap motors to much to be unbolting the hood all the time does anyone have any pictures of the fox with the 6" extended and the regular ones?

Is clearance that much of an issue that you need 6" or do you just think it looks "cool"? Street car or track?

I would say 2.5"- 3" tops. Anything bigger looks goofy and obstructs view on the street....
