I'm looking forward to seeing what you do w/ that shaker scoop! I'd like to have one for my car, even though I love my cowl hood.
Mike Ford's old KOS challenger (plum crazy w/ a single carb B1 motor IIRC) had a raised shaker scoop that I always thought was cool.
Harry Schilling has one on his burgundy/maroon hemicuda too that looks good.
