Ordered a bolt on scoop for my '68...
Decided to cut the hood and will be using a Harwood scoop to get some air into my engine...

Blue and white? I think it will look good that way or you could leave it racer black.

Can't wait to see it installed and painted.

I'm curious to see if it makes any difference at all. To my knowledge there is 1000CF+ coming off the fan + on both sides of the cavity around a SB and the inner fenderwells is wide enough to pass enough air to feed a F-18 engine at full afterbuner so if your trying to get more air flow I don't see the difference. However if it's cooler air your looking for...........well your absolutely correct.

Okay I see. The stock hood is one of the reason I have to run that damn 2.5" filter even with a drop base so I feel your pain.
I'm using a high rise Super Victor CNC intake...

When I suggested this you said it wasn't an option (and I specifically said bolt on scoop so you could paint it seperate from the car and therefore not needing a complete new paintjob) ....
