Anybody know where I can find more of these clips? For trim piece on lower back glass above trunk
Jumkyard is probably your best bet. Have 1997ThunderbirdLXV6 grab some for you on his next run if you don't have any in yards around you.

Foxbody Mustangs used the same clips, you can get aftermarket replacements from LMR, American Muscle etc.
Love the paint, wish I could afford to do mine.

Anybody have any cowl hoods available? Carb hat doesn’t fit under my hood and I don’t want to cut a hole in the cervini.

Out of the box thought, cut hole in the hood but use a Corvette L88 scoop to cover the raised air cleaner lid, mad max style
Fun fact, in between Mad Max and The Road Warrior the black interceptor was briefly made road legal to be sold, losing the blower and zoomies, using the same L88 scoop as the yellow one to cover the hole.

Way cooler than a cowl everyone else has

That looks perfect, might just run a low profile filter until I put the forced induction on it and then figure out hood clearance afterwards lol

Are you already running a dropped base air cleaner?

No , that’s my next move, after my incorrect measurement lol
This is what I'm running on my Crown Vic with a Holley 4160 carb with electric choke.
