I never heard of a 3 inch steel one, I've heard of 2,3,4 inch fiberglass and some cases a 4 inch steel but I don't think they have a 4 inch steel for 73-87s?

I did at one time but their buy-in was ridiculous.  I think I may sell 3 cowls a year, they wanted me to buy $5000 worth to get jobber pricing.

Haven't talked to Harwood, but most fiberglass places are hard to deal with.

fiberglass has more options though. Some vehicles like s-10's and 3rd gen camaro's have a 4 inch steel which I love, just wished they offered them for all vehicles. Plus they got some steel ram air style and such for the 88-98 trucks. I'd run steel for sure if they had what I wanted.
