I've done a bit of research on this lately. Big aero scoops seem to be worth a little bit of ET over cowl's or other small forward facing scoops like you have now. The con is they're a pain to see around, if you've ever driven a car with one, you know what I mean.

My car hates the cowl hood  I run a 5inch glasstek similar to Johns.I have tried 3 to 4 air pans,blocking this and that and different carb spacers and it dirty's the plugs after one run. I also run a max effort carb that's 2.20 bore that's made for the most air you can throw at it.

Chris how does Butch Kemp run so quick with a cowl hood on the Mustang and its sealed to the hood
You need to look at the distance from the windshield..
close(about 1" to max 2")... this is mine but its
no A-body... I set this up up so I could hinge it
but I am thinking about making a slider on the back
opening to get it close for racing

Mine loves the cowl hood(6" glasstech)...no air pan or even close to the windshield...145mph in the 1/8 and should be in the 150mph range with the new combo !!
