The hood mockups I've seen don't seem to take into account that the clearance problem of the Whipple s/c (as I understand it) is mostly in the front section of the hood -- not the topside so much or the back of the hood. Repositioning (or eliminating entirely) the cross-support bar will be an issue as well.
I think a lot of folks are following this thread just out of academic interest to see where it goes, and what it does on a dyno, but as far as making all the concessions necessary to actually make it fit their own car, very few will bite if the hood can't accommodate it tastefully.
Just my two cents...
