    If you go to their websites and look around, dimensions should be there somewhere.

    Hood width at the front or the rear of the hood? What are you attempting to do?

    Rear of the hood. Trying to do a weird custom build. Hopefully it comes out good if the measurements are right. Might have to do some cutting lol might have to say screw it lol

    Tried to find you a diagram and couldn't. Measured a 378 that was in the shop and its right on 60". 378/379 will be the same a the rear of the hood.

    If you do go through with this.... I really want some pics:)
