TL1 Hood Insert (Camaro SS, RS, LT)
Upgrade Your Camaro's Performance with ACS Composite TL1 Hood Insert Kit
Introducing the TL1 Hood Insert self-install kit, the coolest way to upgrade your stock hood. That's right, modify your Aluminum Hood and save on re-paint and the hassles with replacement hoods. The ACS TL1 Hood Insert self install kit pays homage to the Zl1 while matching the lines of the existent stock hood of your Camaro.
Other than its lightness, the original Camaro Hood does not offer any performance advantages, until now that is. Install the Tl1 Hood Insert to extract the engine's hot air, and reduce body lift at high speed by relieving under hood pressure. Trim your hood following our guide and templates, rest assured every trimmed edge will be covered (Margin of error, +/- 1/8'' outer). Hood insert kit includes a water management system draining the water towards the front radiator support away from critical engine electronics. For extreme events like racing, you can easily remove the deflector for an optimum suction effect.
The insert is made in ACS's proprietary RTM process and is shipped in a primer finish ready for prep and paint. Unlike conventional fiberglass, ACS's RTM process has been tested to withstand heat and distortion. Stock hood will need to be trimmed and 6 mounting holes will need to be drilled. Includes the Insert, rain water deflector, mounting hardware, octagonal grill mesh kit powder coated black, and templates.
Enhance your Camaro's performance with the ACS Composite TL1 Hood Insert self-install kit. Reduce body lift and engine heat while saving on repainting or heavy costs associated with replacement hoods. Get yours today!
