    If I remember correctly, the Cobra hood only weighs a bit more than the Saleen heat extractor hood. I only remember because Joe at Chicane installed a KB 2.2 in a 2002 Saleen with the heat extractor hood. The original hood would not clear and a 03 Cobra hood was tried to no avail.

    Saleen hood on left, Cobra on right. Heat wxtractor looks way better in my opinion. I owned a Cobra also so I can talk S*@#!

    The Saleen heat extractor hood will not work on the 03/04 Cobras even with the shield off.

    That is the same hood. The 281e is a bit different but looks to fit about the same as the 281 hood.
