The only scoop other than a a Hemi scoop on those that looks 1/2 way decent is a Cowl hood.

Most often I like the Hemi scoop. I don't mind the cowl scoops but seems like everyone is using them.

I think the Hemi scoop looks great on them. I not really a fan of the cowl scoop on the 68 Cuda. Ron

Hard to go wrong with a hemi scoop in my opinion.

3182 and 3183 look to be big scoops! What is the rear tire size? I know it seems like a random question, but IMO, there is a "SCOOP TO REAR TIRE" ratio to consider. I am serious though. You want to balance that nicely. You can have a big tire, and small scoop, but if you have a big scoop, and a small rear tire, it ain't going to look right!

Anyone else agree? haha.

Gee thanks.....Our heads up turd has a lot of scoop and not much tire. But it is what it took to fit it in there. Wish the old Hemi scoop could stay but it simply dont fit..Oh yeah we have a new even BIGGER scoop going on the car this year. Also new paint again..

Kenny, I totally agree with ya! I thought I was crazy for thinking that way myself, but I have found another LOL

As for the OP, I think you can't go wrong with a hemi scoop on an a-body cuda, they just look right imo
