You can always cut your exhisting hood and make one. Other than that, no, you wont find a complete hood for that price.

You're not going to find a new one for that $$$$. If you get lucky, you may find a used one.

This catalog should have what you're looking for-

*Edit* Link not working, type in cowl hood or hood scoops in the search-

JC Whiteny has them for 171 bucks, thats a good price.

Since you are going to paint it (hopefully) what not just get a 'glass cowl scoop and have it 'glassed on and then paint it. I did this on one of my cars a few years ago. It looked so good and it was only $80.00 at the time to buy the cowl and get it 'glassed on. I bough the scoop on Ebay. I got the hood painted a few months later at Maco for $60.00 They did a good job. At least our Maco does great work in our area. They did my Baja bug 2 summers ago and it was really nice. I paid $230 out the door for the Baja bug.

I think a cowl hood with "4.0 OHV" decals would look tits.

Yup!! If the SOHC guys can do it with their ever-so-popular "powerdome" hood, why the hell cant we?!?
