mountain fit hood

Bought a mountain fit hood on their Christmas special with all the intake, venting, and led headlight.
Started by laying out all the vent panels

Then drill two holes to run 10x24 machine screws through before drilling the rest of the holes

Ready to fit the intake

Mout the vents in and the shelf on

Now there needed to be some trimming where the side panels clip into the hood. When you trim the hole, ONLY TRIM THE BOTTOM OF THE HOLE!
otherwise you ruin the entire project right at the end!
Oops
 
When mounting the front anchors I had to notch the aluminum bracket a bit to move the clip forward to get the front rivet more meat
 
Have worked in the past

We have always gotten the tabs to work, not sure why they aren't working for you, guess we could make then a little more adjustable. The hole in the rear is left tight to help hold the panel in, we can make you up a alum tab to rivet in from the back to help, we have looked at doing so even our shop sled could benefit from a set.

Can you weigh your hood complete with the gauge and no headlight when your done?

Is there any pics of a clear hood installed on a pro rmk?
 
My attempt on fixing my bad cuts

It fits better on the top but the front really doesn't look that good. I have about a half inch gap all the way around the front of both pannels

I think with a clear hood all you'd see is a bunch of wireing harness, coil packs, and a pipe. Not like the old days when you'd see a sweet custom motor

I don't have a scale to weigh it but it probably isn't far off from stock. I wasn't looking for weight savings I was looking for the best intake for my turbo.

I probably won't be getting on the snow for a while, I'm in the process of moving and switching jobs to be closer to the mountain.
But I assume it will take light controlled rollovers but probably not a violent wreck

It almost looks like I should figure a way to get rid of the plastic spacers on the front dzeus clips to get rid of the 1/2 gap

Looks like thats all intake vents, any vents to let air in or out?

I will have to figure something out for that yet, Maby a set of holes in each vent space Maby a mesh vent kit, Maby a blow hole, haven't decided yet. I also need to build some kind of new council that fits the mfg and key so I don't have to keep messing with the dumb connectors
 
Took a spacer out and cut the hole a bit bigger for the dzeus clip to fit through it looks a lot better.
Got the led light mounted too, had to rebuild the harness it came with to get things where I wanted them. And hard wired the power from behind the hood harness splice. Since there is no hood harness for plug and play ease
