Where exactly is the hood supposed to be trimmed or "cut"??????
Maybe on the Superbird's where they use a flat Coronet hood (examples earlier in this thread), But on the Bees and R/T's with the power bulge hoods they are NOT cut from the factory. Something is a miss with your set up Pete. Maybe try and adjust the motor mounts, but as mentioned above the K-frame can be spaced down for additional clearance, but you shouldn't have to do that. Is the air cleaner base correct?
Did you look at the yellow 4bbl hood, then the 2 orange 6bbl hoods? They are cut on 6bbl cars, you cut the whole center brace out, dead center, front to back. If he has a flat coronet hood it will have to be cut out to fit. Did a little internet search and the original 6bbl twin scoop hoods were cut out also, if you look up in the airbox there is no brace.
