I cant believe you guys are so DOWN on a cowl scoop... like those front facing short scoops do ANYTHING
It`s a chevy scoop..............just my personal opinion. After looking at old time slips and jetting notes I have to say that my 6-pack scoops doing more than I thaught. Went from a 10.50 w/stock jetting to a 10.03 w/optimal jetting w/a sealed 6-pack scoop so you tell me. Plus, it was a pig w/out the hood............
You finally got your jetting right and the sealed scoop doesnt let in heated air... move the scoop up into the air flow and it will start to pressurize the intake.... I'm running a ALMOST factory cowl on my Rampage but its not close enough to the windshield so I will run ducts from the front into the cowl with a loover on the back of the cowl... I will open the loover when its raining for the street

Mr P, for once I disagree with you lol. No way is the outside air gonna pressurize any intake manifold on a running engine by going down the track.

I guess nobody's ever seen a 1970 Roadrunner/GTX hood before??? Looks like a cowl hood to me
If guys would say that they wanted to install a "tall '70 Roadrunner hood scoop" on their car instead of saying "cowl hood", maybe the die hard Joe Dirt Mopar guys would like the idea better???
Or MAYBE, Mopar DID copy the cowl hood on the '70 Plymouth B-bodies off of sixties Camaros......... much like they copied the back window on '68 to '70 Chargers off of '66-'67 GM cars too........So, I guess Chargers have "Chevy" back windows.......
If you can't handle the truth, you're living a lie.......

A cowl or 6pack scoop would look best on a demon IMO. To me, its all about how the body is shaped and how the lines flow. A squared off 67-9 dart would look best with a hemi scoop for example.

For all of these photos you show of cars w/cowls, there`s WAY more running a real mopar scoop..............to each his own. If they were that bad ass, pro stock cars would be running em.
the 6 pak scoop definately has it's appeal but as i asked before, how fast are you running with the 6 pak? the cowl definately is more aerodynamic & instead of upping to that huge elephant looking snout/scoop that the Pro Stock classes run, i'd rather have a cowl, chevy look or not, the cowl is a better option if you want to be fast.

and dont forget about X heads or 906heads also we cant use stroker cranks,aftermarket pistons or how about just draw the line at the point that it has to be a correct resto to work,you know all these aftermarket parts are not mopar,most of them are more chevy based so better stop using them im going for a cowlhood the next time around

same could be said for Six Pack scoops........and I don't think I've ever seen one on anything other than a Mopar, so it's not even good enough for other guys to copy......

Ever seen a ProStock scoop on a FACTORY Mopar. You guys MUST hate ProStock hoods also...correct. Good point..Thanks.

Looking for a fiberglass hood for my new Demon. Not sure what would look the best. A nice sixpack hood always looks good but thinking about a cowl hood. I do also like the 72 Demon snorkel hood scoops. What do you guys think?
Also, if anyone has one laying around, let me know. Prefer a bolt on.
Um, hate to get back on topic, but the questions was what do you think LOOKS best?
In my less than humble opinion, anything but a cowl LOOKS the best on an old Mopar. 6-pack, twin, Hemi, etc. Pick one. They all look better than a cowl scoop.
I haven't went 150 in my car, nor do I ever have plans to, so I could care less which scoop is the most aerodynamic at those speeds for my car. All I know is every time I see an 60/70's era Mopar at the track with a tall cowl hood scoop I think the car would LOOK better with something else. However I've yet to walk past a 9 second Dart with Hemi scoop and think "Wow, he'd be faster and more stable with a cowl scoop. He's really dumb for running that".
Boxy cars like Darts/Road Runners = Hemi scoop More rounded shapes like Dusters, E-bodies = 6 pack scoop

I`ve only been 134mph but have seen guys in the 8`s w/a 6-pack scoop so who knows. Of course a cowl is more aero that`s a no brainer however it looks out of place on a mopar........enuff said.

I think every body should keep this in mind that this is a general conversation and each person has their view on the subject , no one is hacking on a individual person , it's just their opinion. There is no doubt that a Hemi scoop grabs air as does the 6 pac but at a certain speed they will become a hinderance, The air velocity will try and sometimes succeed to rip it off. Ask me how I know that.
it's ok to butt heads, just don't do it with a butthead

That's a NICE looking Demon. The Demon I had years ago had the stock dual snorkel scoops and I think that is the best looking hood by far..... if you can find a good fiberglass replica.
Since it's a street car, my second choice would be a cowl. If you get caught in the rain, etc., your engine compartment isn't "collecting" debris like a forward scoop would.

I think every body should keep this in mind that this is a general conversation and each person has their view on the subject , no one is hacking on a individual person , it's just their opinion. There is no doubt that a Hemi scoop grabs air as does the 6 pac but at a certain speed they will become a hinderance, The air velocity will try and sometimes succeed to rip it off. Ask me how I know that.
very true, my glasshood is a very nice and stable one but with the sicpack scoop there is massive lift forces at high speed for sure,however on a 68chevelle i used to own with a L88 scoop there was clearly lots of lift forces also however this hood was nowhere near as wellmade as the one on my duster so its kind of hard to give a fair comparison one advantage with the cowlstyle is that its alot easier to tie the hood down to the car where the most lift is with a cowlhood compared to a forward facing scoop..

It look out of place. If I had an A-body, oh wait I've had a few, I'd run a HEMI scoop on 67-69 and a demon snorkel on the 70-up. I even saw a 70 Dart last year w/ a 5" Hemi, it looked pretty good. And so do the cowls on Darts if the are put on right. FWIW if your scoop isn't 3" or taller I doubt it catches much air.

I think the 72 snorkel with the sizzler stripes looks great.

Like I said, your scoop is not taking in much(if any)air but as you said it`s for clearance only. My scoop definately takes in air cos it`s full of dirt after a cruise here in the desert and after racing and it like 4 1/2 inches tall but if I could fit an 8" aero scoop and still be legal I would.

I vote sixpack. I know a guy that had a Dumpter (Duster) that had a six pack hood installed on backwards to meet rules. Looked terrible but gave him the clearance he needed. No cowl hoods belong on Mopars. It's a Chevy thing.

Pics for all you cowl hood haters....running a 9" FORD. What a joke. Buy an AAR smooth COWL HOOD. NOTHING looks better on Demon's.
DaKuda, from the looks of things, not a single one of those cowl scoops in your A body pictures is close enough to the windshield in order to make it function correctly. So all its really there for is additional hood clearance. Plus the fact that they are just butt-ugly on a Mopar, or even some Chevy's. Those things started out low, like on the original Chevelles or 70 Road Runner, and then grew to ridiculous, clown-car proportions. Might as well run fiberglass fender flares and paint polka dots on the car.

what's even but-uglier is a six pack hood on anything other than a 6-pack car (A-12) MAYBE on a 68 Coronet or RR... A-body's look much better w/ a HEMI scoop or cowl. On a 70-up A-body the best scoop would be the snorkel.

I have a cowl hood on my '67 Dart. I got it because it was a bargain at a swap meet and I wanted a fiberglass hood. In my opinion you wouldn't go wrong with either selection you mentioned, although the pro stock snorkel you posted doesnt look right to me.
Better get inside Ma. Looks like a storm's comin'.

There's alot of 'opinions'in this thread, everyone has different taste. I loved the 6-pack scoop on my 69 Dart, nothing in my opinion would have looked better on it, although a cowl would have been cool too. To say 6-packs are only for A12 cars is rediculous.
My 72 Duster will have a dual snorkel scoop on it.

cowl hoods look killer on a demon.... besides ...a 70 road runner hood is basically like a cowl hood..although it doesnt get air from the cowl... but in appearance..i think its basically the same look

I'm enjoying this thread I too am in the need of a new hood for a Demon. Sometimes what you are trying to put under/in the hood scoop has a lot to do with the scoop choice.

I had a six pack scoop on my Demon, I never did like it. I think the cowl hood scoop looks a lot better if you are only going for looks or clearance.

Looking for a fiberglass hood for my new Demon. Not sure what would look the best. A nice sixpack hood always looks good but thinking about a cowl hood. I do also like the 72 Demon snorkel hood scoops. What do you guys think?
Also, if anyone has one laying around, let me know. Prefer a bolt on.
I love the look of the snorkel scoops, thats my vote.
So you sold the old Demon and now have a new one?
Whats your intentions with the new one? Any pics?

I think I got it in 2010 after bugging the heck out of them (AAR) to put this scoop in their product line.
IMO, This is the best looking scoop. However sealing this scoop to the hood (mine was stock height) slowed my car down a tenth & half. I have heard many of others with the same results. If they worked they would be on all the stockers, & super stockers.

"For all of these photos you show of cars w/cowls, there`s WAY more running a real mopar scoop..............to each his own. If they were that bad ass, pro stock cars would be running em. " Real Mopar scoops you have got to be kidding me. What is that. Shaker, sure Ford used it 1st, Pontiac Super Duty scoop from the early 60's is very similar to the 6 pk, even the Ford Thunderbolt tear drop scoop(rear facing and predates the Chevy cowl by several yrs) is similar to a cowl scoop. So what scoop is original to what! Put what you want on your car. To me the cowl looks best on your car. I've had a hemi scoop,aero snorkel, shaker and now a cowl scoop on my car. To me the cowl looks best and I laugh at those that say its not a Mopar scoop. Really what is that.
Ok

Glasstek will make whatever you want also. Pretty much all of their hoods start off as regular flat hoods...then they cut and mold on whatever scoop you want, so placement shouldn't be a problem. Really nice stuff!
