I've been putting off sealing my 6pak hood for 2 years because the carb sits above the hood line, I thought it would be hard to do but I mocked it up with cardboard and it turned out to work fine with a flat piece of aluminum. Thanks for the awesome piece of aluminum by the way MrPbody! I will eventually bond this to the bottom of the hood with a hole in it for an air cleaner so I can run it on the track the same way as the street but hopefully next saturday I'm gonna track test this huge pan. ![](/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif) I modified the return spring slightly so it won't hang up on the pan at full throttle. I also made a bracket to hold it down to the carb at speed, and I'll be testing jets with the pan too. I'll let you know how it goes!

I am just in the process of making one for my Dart, the pan is even larger than yours due to the size of the hemi scoop. What type of foam have you used. Mick

Mine was worth a tenth and a little over 1 mph. In the cooler night air it really picks up around 1000'.
Yeah, it's got a smallblock.

The silicone adhesive kept comming loose. Aluminum measures .077 thick.
Yeah, it's got a smallblock.

Did I mention I love your "new" car?
Thanks, after installing a different motor, tranny, wheels/tires and every nut bolt and bracket on the car I'm finally starting to enjoy it. ![](/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif)

Looks like it will work good. On my sixpak hood I glued a piece of lexan to the bottom of the hood then used a standard Moroso pan and made a hole in the lexan accordingly.
Have a Pic. ![](/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/scope.gif)
