I is mechanically perfect, so i will wait on the other stuff until I sell the lifted F150 its replacing.

I would skip the cowl hood, and find a 01-02 Chevrolet 2500HD/3500 hood, all you have to do is trace and cut around where the GMC headlights "bulge" into the hood. Leave just a bit of extra material and bend it over into a seam, or just weld the seam. Looks much cleaner than a cowl hood on this body style truck, and it will be something that very few others will have. Just my opinion, of course it's your truck, but the one off factor of a HD hood on a GMC is very cool, and you will likely come out cheaper than a cowl hood.
