70's pro stock mopar hood scoops

I found a very small picture of a dart sport like mine with a approx 5 inch tall
70s pro stock scoop on it and i like it!! I think I've found my scoop!
Anyone have any pics of these scoops (on any car) and tell any
Stories or experiences. Other than the sticking out cragars, the 70's
Look is killer!

heres the one i found.. thanks for that link

I like it,that mite be my next look if I can get it to work.Its all about the wind movement.Maybe I can get it to work,air movement dose funny things.

That looks like Mopar's first effort at a P/S scoop. As time went on, and you can see it in early P/S pics, they eventually built a "ramp" up to the opening, im an effort to get above the dead air at surfave level, then went to a snorkel style scoop which obviosly worked better to what is used, still, today a very fancy & modified version of the basic snorkel scoop. You can find details of the enginner's work in the old old Mopar chassis manual.

here is a pic of mine.thanks Mopar65

I always liked the looks of this one

Notice that the later Dart Sport has a "snorkle"-type extension on it after they figured out that it was more efficient.

Don Carlton and the Mopar Missile team did a lot of aerodynamic testing and experimented with several scoop designs.
