Dwight, I have done a lot of research on the 67 RO-23 package and have been trying to get the hood scoop approved for the 67 440 GTX in stock eliminator. NHRA won't allow the scoop on the 67 GTX, and I'm ok with that, BUT. Chrysler Corp.,Dodge, and Plymouth DID NOT put a hood scoop on anything from the factory. There is a picture of a 66 Dodge Coronet with a Max Wedge hood scoop that was the prototype for the 67 RO-23 and the WO-23 packages, and it never left the factory. Therefore, I don't think the 66 cars should be allowed to run the scoop. Sorry to the two racers that run them. For the MoPar racers it is good to see the 64, and 65 A990 cars can now run stock eliminator, and now the 67 WO-23 and RO-23 cars.
