I think to buy an Anvil Auto dry carbon fiber cowl induction hood for my 1967 Camaro, I know it weight just 12 lbs and my question is:
How many lbs I can save compared to the factory steel one ?

this an older post of mine, but it should answer your basic question

as always I just cant leave my car alone, I picked up a stinger hood last year and I painted about 2 months ago, so this weekend was sunny and I changed hoods the old hood weighed in at a portly 49LBS Plus 4LBS for springs the Stinger Hood came at 19LBS plus hood pins

Do you feel a sensible difference only in racing or also in the street ?
Your Hood is not from Anvil Auto, which brand isit ?
