Good point bigshow, our Max Wedge car has the same HP with or without the hood scoop as far as we can tell. Ron really cant afford a $5k alum hood, so no hood scoop for him either. No one can tell me that hood clearance and hoods scoops arent an issue. We had to make Ron''s plenum very small due to the lack of hood clearance. We also had to make the intake runner about an inch too short.

What I am saying is that if the guys run the Max Wedge or the 440 magnum in the GT car they should be able to incorporate the hood scoop how the engine came. Shaker or otherwise.
