Dont you guys think that if a car's engine came with Ram Air we should be able to incorporate the original hood scoop on the GT car? IE 428 CJ should get the shaker hood they were rated with. 440 magnum should get the 440 magnum hood scoop.

I think it would be way cool to let the fans know that it is the new car with the appropriate engine dynamics!

Lynn;
The average fan wouldn't know and no less care if a SS car had the correct scoop on it.All they care about is
ogling Ashley,Brittany and Courtney.I love your optimism and passion for SSers but face it,if it doesn't belch 2 foot flames out it isn't their concern.
If these cars were given appropriate hood scoops then others would climb on the band wagon and whine for something to counter the scoops.
