I have a love / hate relationship with my modified T/A scoop... cuz it's so freakin' big. But I found some pics of 340 Rick's old Challenger w/ the 5" VFN scoop and figured I post 'em up like those silly celebrity "Who wore it better?" fashion comparisons...

Yep; this was done simply for my amusement

I like the gentler slope at the rear of the scoop better, but either is fine and better than some adaptations I've seen. Then again, I'm an idiot to some here, I guess, because I don't mind cowl induction scoops. I happen to think E-bodies look pretty good w/ cowl scoops and had considered one for a while

They both look great. Hopefully it won't try to tear itself off the car at speed. Everyone loves to cry about cowl hoods on mopars, but for the classes that prohibit a forward facing scoop...what exactly are you supposed to do?

I like them both. Because of both of your cars, I almost went with the same taller T/A scoop as yours. Until I was able to get a good deal on a Shaker hood, so I made my Super Shaker scoop and hood. Most don't like it, but I don't care. I like to be different.
