Why put a Chevrolet hood on a Mopar? Just my 2 cents... Exactly. It would be like putting a 6 Pac scoop on a Camaro. It just wouldn't look right.......

If you ask me that sixpack scoop doesnt look right on anything but 68-70 plymouth B-bodies either,for what its worth i have one of those sixpack scoops on a 73 Duster and dont realy like it. Go with what works and if you go for a scoop based on looks,get one that fits the lines of your car.

Why put a Chevrolet hood on a Mopar? Just my 2 cents... because they look good? I mean E-bodys got a furd shaker? and for some Mopars no other hood scoop looks good. Chargers for example...and if you need room they are the only way to go.

I have no problem with cowl hoods on Mopars, they look great if done right. And I loved the 6pak hood on my Dart. I would use it again in a heartbeat. It was a 3" glass hood from AAR. I don't care too much for the taller 6pak scoops but I know they serve a purpose for clearance.

Why put a Chevrolet hood on a Mopar? Just my 2 cents... That's as dumb as asking "why put bucket seats in my car?" just because some other car company offered them first.

Cowl hoods look fantastic on mopars- actually any cars. Late 70s Aspens, Volares and Malibus for example. They are a GM staple but wow do they look good.
Keep old mopars alive.

Make it stop! LOL. I want a cowl hood real bad but never made the move yet to order one. I dislike the look if they stop short of the windshield so its gotta be a lift off and its gotta be tight for me.
