We cut the hood on my sons when we added the scoops. You can tell in the webbing under the hood where it is rounded a little that it is where you cut the holes which I believe should be 4 inches.

I used to own a laundromat so if you want to put some rubber edging on the holes, go to a Commercial Wascomat or Speed Queen distributor and get 1 dryer door seal. The look almost like originals for ALLOT less Family owned 1969 Charger R/T DualQuad 440/727/GVO/3.55s
