Mike Mileski Posted June 14, 2015 Share Posted June 14, 2015 I have a 1971 240Z. The ads for hoods say that 240Z and 280Z hoods are different. Just how "different" are they? Would it be simple or hard or impossible for me to adapt a 280Z hood onto a 240Z? Mike Mileski Tucson, AZ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRRTz Posted June 14, 2015 Share Posted June 14, 2015 Late 280z hoods have vents but other than that they should be the same. I've been running a 240z hood on my 280z for years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Six_Shooter Posted June 14, 2015 Share Posted June 14, 2015 They physically fit exactly the same, but the later 280Z hoods have vents as mentioned, which makes them different, but doesn't exclude them from fitting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dexter72 Posted June 14, 2015 Share Posted June 14, 2015 Will all fit as has been said, A lot of people put the later model Hood Vent hood on, to help get rid of underhood heat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it helping? I mean does those 280 style vents really working? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
