Did a search and couldn't find anything. Can anyone out there tell me the correct placement of the max wedge hood scoop for a 64 dodge? All I want is the measurement from the edge of the hood by the cowl to the rear-edge of the hoodscoop as measured down the center of the hood.

Thanks,
Jason

An additional question to this post, what's the diameter of the holes in the hood for a '64 max wedge? Thanks.

I have Schilds books. All of them. I haven't seen anything on the hood scoop placement.
I have also seen the guys templates on ebay. I don't want to spend $45 for one little measurement.

Nobody out there with a max wedge scoop on a 64??

Mine is 2-3/4" from the back edge of the hood,measured in the center. I'm sure I got that measurement somewhere,but don't remember where.

I was gonna say look around on Moshers site but it looks like all the 64 Dodges he has on there have the Hemi scoop. I could measure mine but mine is a 63 Plymouth which I dont know if the placement on the hood is different. Here is a pic of mine to give you an idea. Ron

Pushbutton: THANKS!!

Your measurement seems like it should be right. The thing I notice is that the center "rib" of the hood, if I go too far towards the front raises up so high that it pushes up the rear of the hood scoop from sitting flat on the hood. Is your scoop notched to clear this central rib?

Yes,I ground a small notch at the rear to clear the rib. I am not running the hood trim.
