Can you stand the truth? A six pack scoop has no place on a Charger(neither does a chevy cowl). But other than that, it's a beautiful ride!
I loved my Charger (R/T with a 4 speed)






yeah well when you need 1.5" of room under a charger hood, you do what ya gotta do. Six-Pack, Cowl, Hemi...etc.

Then what do you suggest? A plain, boring flat hood?




A stock Charger hood is far from being 'plain, boring and flat'. There is not another Mopar(or brand X for that matter) that has a dual scalloped hood. Designers spent countless of man hours on this design. Don't sell it short.




Well Greg's choice was awesome and the hood belongs perfectly on his car because it was his choice..... you don't like it to bad. In your remark it appears that you would expect him to change the hood just to appease you.




Thank you. That's was the whole reason behind my post. Saying something has "no place" is a little strong. It probably just came off wrong. And I agree. The stock Charger isn't "boring" for a factory hood. But for us that are chasing perfomance, there's no option but to add some sort of scoop. Unless a hole in the hood with the air cleaner sticking through would be cooler.

It's a beautiful Charger. But when you post, you open yourself for opinions. Mine is just one. No offense intended.

Very true. I got mixed opinions on the cowl hood on my Charger. When you run a tall single plane intake, you have to do something. Some will love it, some will hate it. Mopar purists will hate my cowl hood. They may also hate my green Charger that was originally plum crazy, but hey, it's my car.

Looks good, now go get some numbers.




10.9 @123. I think there is a 10.7 in it; the engine is very OLD!




what's the set-up? 123 should be good for a few more 10ths. I'd love to see a 10.9999999 pass.

I fight with the hood scoop Demon in my head every Day! Lol
Because i have a nice Ported M1 single plane on my charger with a carb with no spacer and crapy 1.5inch air cleaner w drop base so i can close my hood . I need a spacer and a 1050 dominator on the 493 but can't bring myself to change the hood on the car so the battle continues in my head ....

I think the car looks great with the scoop. I have been sitting here for the last ten minutes trying to think of what scoop would look better on there and there is nothing coming to mind. Maybe a 671 with a hat on it would look cool! Awsome car. Nothing wrong with 10.90's. I also really like the front plate. It fits the car perfectly

.030 440, TRW piston, stock stroke, .590 purple shaft, stock port open chamber edelbrock performer heads and a little shot of nitrous. I put the bottom end together in 1993-ish when I was a punk 19 year old kid.

Thanks for the feedback! It's always cool when you start a thread that gets this many replies.

I'm amazed at what my wife did with photo shop (last couple pics). I want to enlarge one and frame it for the garage!

Good looking car but that is a LOT of tire to pack on the other end!
