Hi, we're thinking of a six pack scoop on our 70 Charger (calm down purists, it's a resto-mod).

We have a 440 six-pack almost ready to go in, but would like to get the dims. for both the hole in the hood and scoop placement.
I know the engine's offset, but since we have to take the hood off anyway, we could kill two birds with one stone.

The body shop who did our paint will do the grafting so we need a consensus on the best way to install and best scoop to buy, (standard height).

Thanks all for any info...Joe

Good idea Dayclona, cost-wise close to a wash as the instructions don't seem too hard.

I'll talk to my son and maybe save a hood as you say..

Ordered the lift-off this morning with the six pack scoop! $418 plus shipping.

Now we'll need to install the four pins and the scoop to the hood, and cutting the hood
for air cleaner hole.

The direction for putting the scoop on look pretty straight-forward, but we sure would appreciate
any tips and measurements that will help us do this correctly.

Some pics and dimensions on the pin's locations, the air cleaner hole and where to buy the pins and
brackets, etc. will be very helpful....Thanks

If you'd like Joe, I can measure the six pack carbs location from the cowl/fender locations from my own 70 440 6 pack Charger tonight to give you an idea of their location in regards to the hood?

Below is what you might want to emulate, lift off hood, A12 air cleaner....mind as well do it "right"



(EDIT)
Joe, here's some measurements off my 70 440/6 Charger from the back of the hood, forward down the center of the hood the rear carb air cleaner stud is approx 9" to the stud, again from the back of the hood the front carb air cleaner stud is 19", remember the driveline is offset to the passenger side, the center of both carb studs from the drivers side edge of the hood is approx 27"...if you map out these two marks on the top of your hood, and have the six pack aircleaner top lid, just line up the carb stud holes with the dimensions I gave you, this is where the engine/carbs will sit.....if your going with the lift off design, perhaps you might want to use the lift off air cleaner base and gasket so that you have a true ram air set up, and the carb get fresh air all the time?....while the steel repro bases are spendy, fiberglass repro bottom base plates are available form different sources, Year One, Hybrid Solutions...

the rear brackets and pin sets are available at most of your favorite repo places, YO, Classic, etc. the brackets would be the 69 A12 ones that bolt to the existing hood hinge area. once the bracket is in place you mount the rod/pin and take your measurements. i'm not fimiliar with chargers to much but i would assume the the area where the front hood bumpers on the radiator support are the same as my 69 RR. here's an older pic of where to mount them. hopefully somebody will have something better than my god-aweful pic.

Good decision on not hacking up a good steel hood. You're the winner with either hood.

Here's some alternate A12 air cleaners

Wow, thanks for all the good info,
we now have all we need I think to get started.

By the way, I didn't see an option to have the vendor glass in the scoop, I'll call them Monday.

Thanks again, you guys are GREAT!!
