good luck in finding a carbon fibre hood....that will be hard...you may have to have it custom made from a company that does carbon fibre....there aren't many hoods to choose from for our car...i think there's only 2...the stock one and the ram air hood from mpd..
PFYC also makes a copy of the MPD hood for less money but it weights more.

Space - Is that a generic pic for gas milage or specific to the Monte. WetherI do 55 or 75 I typically see the exact same milage per the DIC. (thats over a 20 mile stretch.)

Hi Dan, I think it was a generic chart for the average motor
vehicle. They did a comparsions of several vehicles to
give an approximate estimate of saving.
Your Monte is the exception to the rule : )
Dan, what site is PFYC ?
Thanks for being an active member of the MCF
