For those of you that have a choo choo el Camino hood, can you measure the distance from back of hood to scoop? I'd appreciate it greatly.

I have a hood that the scoop was removed. When I get home tonight I can get you a measurement to the mounting holes if that's any help.

Thank you sir. Any idea of where that went in hood scoop itself? I have a repop without holes and it doesn't look like they sit 4" back from cowl

Judging by the marks on the hood, I'm gonna say almost at the back.

This is off of an 84 choo choo. Don't know if they may have moved it through the years.

Thanks Tomeal. Can you do me a solid and measure about where the back line looks to the edge of hood/cowl? That will be good enough for me to mount.
