Re: hood scoop
if that is the same one that is in the link above then i think it looks to small for the 3rd gen hood.

Re: hood scoop
i dunno it's awfully big to be using as a shaker. It's up to you what you do with your car but i'ld personally wouldn't use it.

Re: hood scoop

Re: hood scoop
i'll be nice and won't say what i'm thinking except to say if you flip it around and lower it I would like it better. then again it will look like a mad max car.

Re: hood scoop
Trust me, a scoop that tall on the street will only get you in trouble. I have problems looking over my 6" cowl just driving around the pits.

But there is a down fall i am having secound thoughs about it because this thing has to sit so close that it means i am going to have a hard time buying an aftermarket intake carb i had to do some cuting and this is going to be tricky.Any idears
