I run a 4" scoop, so from the hood line to the top of the scoop in the pic is 4". I am not an expert on air flow, but I have a brother who ran the air flow room for I.H. for over 25 years. Even designed his own air flow bench and flowed turbo housings on the side at home for a little extra $. Yes, I can get all my stuff flowed for free. All I have to do is make the adaptor.

Then I am not and expert on air flow either But I have found on mine & a few others you can have to small or not big enought of a entry & it will hurt the HP,have yet to see one that was so big it hurt the HP. Mr_P, Would it not be better to have the hole somewhat the shape of the scoop,than say a somewhat square scoop with a round hole? That's only a question,not saying its better. Just trying to learn all I can. PS I even painted the inside of my scoop hoping it being smoother it would help the air. Last edited by MRMOPAR570; 02/05/11 11:35 AM.

I cant say... to me if there is a hole it has a entry mounted to it so in essence the only hole is the entry hole
