What's the scoop on the scoop? That lot won't fit under your existing scoop will it? And what's with the mahoosive horn? A 2cv one is smaller and probably lighter. Could you mount the horn in the boot for better weight distribution, or will the extra wiring negate any gains?

Oh, yeah! Loving it, mate!!!

lookin good Blue, the inlet looks cool, i still think i could shave a few grams off the motor plate

.
will you get enough airflow through those filters? im looking at using a 6" tall K&N on my setup, might impare vision a little bit though

Blue · Post by **Blue** » Wed Feb 25, 09 8:20 am

Kev, no it won't fit under the hood, new hood and scoop required, more on that later. Horn weighs bugger all...

Trev, filters will probably be restrictive, they are just for the street, I want to keep the scoop as small as possible. I've had big scoops before they are a pain on the street, and make seeing the tree hard work as well.

If I had a tunnel ram the last thing I would want to do would be to hide it under a scoop.

Looking very nice Blue. It's exactly what Mopars are all about.

Thanks Dave, I'm not keen on stuff poking through the hood on later model cars, that look is best suited to rods and gassers IMO.

Blue, you are a genius mate, that looks absolutely right...and Geof Hauser said there was no point in porting those heads any more?

Is the motor too small?
