VIS SRT Hood

Hey guys,
Couldn't really find anything in a search so wanted to make a quick post. I am in the market for a CAI. However I really want to put the VIS SRT Hood on my truck next spring along with a spoiler and rollpan. That being said I am curious if anyone has this hood that would mind chatting with me for a bit in regards to it...




Obviously its a function hood, however the opening on the underside is right below the vent not like the MOPAR hood. So I would need to go with a Vararam I would imagine as all other CAI's locate to the RH side of the Engine Bay. So if anyone has this hood, do you have a CAI? Secondly how does the Vararam seal to the bottom of the hood, as I'm sure its not the shape of the OEM hood on bottom.

If you do have a CAI like the S&B what did you close the hood opening off with? I really would like to take advantage of the direct entry ram air I'm just concerned of the fit for the Vararam since it was designed with the OEM in mind.

It doesn't matter if it won't seal, go to "Steel" rubber seals and buy some dense foam seal like what's on it now and build up the height of the seal to meet the bottom of your hood, that's what I did. Super glue bonds the rubber to each other like a weld. See mine, I had to raise it so it would seal (4th gen Vararam customized for a 3rd gen.) I'm going with a Six Pack hood to do the same thing you're wanting to, just haven't done it yet. Make sure to clean all rubber with alcohol first before gluing.
