the "hump" on the grand natioanl and t-types hood wouldnt really help.the only clearenc it will give is towards the rear,not the center of the motor,it is mostly there for the 84-85 "hot air" motors which have the turbos mounted right inbetween the hood n motor so the hump is there for a little extra insulation....hope that helps

also i think the monte carlo hood is shaped diferently
