Scoop attached to the hood or mounted independently? Looks good either way. Wasn't sure how much I was going to like that scoop on that body, but it looks good.

Thinking about doing this to my new scoop also. Any pictures of how you did it? Did you build a tray inside the scoop then mounted to the engine? I don't think I have ever seen good pictures of how this is done.

The tray is bonded to the inside of the scoop.Then you make up the mount to fit it from there.Here is the style i made up.

You also can use a kit from Quarter Max. This will cut down on some fab work.It just screws inplace of the air cleaner stud and your fastener is then on top of the scoop.

Thanks for the pictures. It clears that install up nicely. Did you have to cut and re-flange the scoop or did it just happen to be at the right height to fit under the hood?

Nice work. If I were closer you would be doing a few things to my Dart.

Brian I hope this was some help to you.I did not have to re-flange the scoop.It fell about 3/8s lower than I would have made it but not worth what it would take to change it.If there is any way I can help please feel free to give me a shout.Thank all of you for the kind words in regards to my work.
Keith,Im pulling everything out tommaro and Giving it to Vic this weekend.Looking forward to bending the needle on your Dyno over the winter.

Wow, Wished I would have turned that light on sooner. That $hit really works.

ATI rates this bad boy to hold up to 1800 HP.
My little W8 would really have to grow a pair in order to break this thing. Now were just down to assembling the engine and we should be ready for spring.Merry christmas to me.

Not to bust your bubble Jeff, but I see a problem....maybe. That is the same transmission I run. They forgot to put the "spacer" between the bellhousing and trans case on mine. They made a run of sb mopar bells that were to short and they make it up with a spacer. Now, maybe you have a newer bellhousing since they said they would correct it at their next run of castings. Just check it out....caused me some grief and took lots of measurements to find out it was not my mistake. ATI kept saying I didn't have the coverter in all the way.

Thanks for the good info Brian. I will be sure to give that a close look. If I run into a issue I may be asking for some of your measurements to compair befor I call them. Thanks again!!!
