That is not a factory hood. It is a 65-67 GTO hood that has been cut and had two scoops added to it. That is a nice job, but not factory. The factory hood had only one of those scoops in the center. And the spoiler was not factory. Spoilers were not an option until 68. They did a good job, but neither of those were factory or correct. And that 428 is not a factory eng either. It was probably a 400 that was stroked, but no factory 428's.

sorry D .. 428 is a very factory engine I had one .. They came in firebirds and the Tempest Customers .. I googled it and found a few more of them .. I never did see another hood like that , but the owner assured me it was original ..

The hood isn't original and the engine isn't correct for that year. It wasn't available till 1968. I meant from my above post it wasn't a correct eng for that year.
