Hello all, Im looking for ideas for a hood scoop for my 70 Challenger. It was a 318 that has a 440 "six pack" transplant. Im looking for options on the lower end of the cost spectrum but that still look stylish. Preferably something I can add to the stock flat hood after cutting a hole for the air cleaner to clear. Thanks in advance.

The best ever scoop on a Challenger is the TA. I would think someone makes a bolt on.

I don't see a T/A style hood scoop on the VFN Website. There is one that's close but it states it's for an A body... What are some other scoop manufacturers?

Thanks
Milan

I have never really been a fan of the TA scoop, always preferred the six pack scoop. Here mine from VFN

I don't think they sell just the scoop it self, I think you have to purchase the hood/w scoop.

Unlimited Fiberglass has them, but I don't know about their quality.

PR-2 - outside mounting flange

PR-23 - inside mounting flange

http://up22.com/scoopw3.htm

It's more work, but I think the inside mounting flange would make for a cleaner looking installation.

I ordered the unlimited scoop with the inside flange. Looking forward to it arriving. They say its 1 - 4 weeks for MFG. Does that sound typical??

Thanks again all!!
Milan

Give the hood to a local fiberglass guru w/ some requirements to raise the scoop 1.5"...

C'mon... it's not THAT big...

Well, OK, it is. At least there's clearance for an air cleaner now. whistling
