..... the 70 Road Runner did not have a Cowl induction hood. It was a power bulge hood that ended at the back of the hood. It did not go over the cowlingor to the windshield. PLUS most of them had a scoop on the power bulge that opened up. sorry for the rant! Pet peave of mine. NO MOPAR ever came with a cowl induction hood.
Obviously, it wasn't cowl induction, but on the non-Air Grabber hood cars it's a cowl induction knock off....just like Mopar copied the back window for the '68-'70 Charger off of the '66-'67 GTO-Chevelle-Skylark-442....  Ouch! I bet that stings!! LOL
What's wrong with putting a "Power Bulge" hood on a Mopar, raising it a couple inches and running it back towards the windshield??  
On this car, the hood doesn't run back to the windshield...in fact, it stops right about where the "Power Bulge" hood does....
If you can't handle the truth, you're living a lie.......

Awesome ride. Beautiful work. That being said, don't think the fuel system ( lines and regulator )location passes NHRA rules?
Fastest 300

only "scoop" that looks good on a Charger (68-70) is a cowl. And for those of us w/ clearance issues it's the only way to go.

Now why would you go and say that, its his car, if he likes it, great, do you really need to share your opinion? If we're being honest, I think that car looks 100 times better than your car and its cowl. And I like cowls, I just dont like your car.

Hey Yuck,
FYI , I had to add the height due to the intake height..I didn't really want to, but I wanted to stay true to Mopar scoop designs. I never said I didn't like the cowl on the Blue 69 here on this post...It looks awesome.

I got it...no harm done. After all, these are all classic Mopars that we are lucky to own and drive.
