Scoop Mock Ups For The Monte

2SCOOPS OF KELLOGS RAISIN BRAN!!! sorry I had too! Carry on😉

Sorry, but the raisins would disrupt the airflow and would defeat the purpose of the second scoop.

Looks like the twin hood scoops on the Night Rider's stolen car from Mad Max 1.

I am the Night Rider! A fuel injected suicide machine! Haahaaahaa.

The 6" cowl hood for my car is designed as a pin on hood with no mounting points for the latch or hinges, I looked at those before I bought my 4" bolt on.

What about dissecting it or however you'd feel most comfortable doing it... and expanding it to the edges of the original cowl hood or tapering it in gradually, or even a small step. I think it is just to slim, and looks like an afterthought.

Your engine is pretty enough go toppless! Is your hood fiberglass or steel? If it was me I would build and graft the hood to your liking.

I've done quite a lot of shopping around for hood scoops, that one looks like the one Unlimited sells. They have a 67 Corvette Stinger scoop that is a little bigger and probably blend in much nicer. I used one on a previous project.

Topless been there and done that, the hood is a fiberglass Harwood.

I looked at Unlimited's scoops and their Stinger but like most scoops it is 2" wider than my cowl.
Plus the Stinger is open in the back also.

I definitely think it would look better being wider and haven't ruled out attempting something like that, just not sure how comfortable I would be doing the fiberglass work.
