Im at the point now in my project where I need to get some input here from you folks.
I orginally was going to run a plain hood on my 64 Dodge. Now I'm second guessing things. I took the car out the other day minus the hood, and even with thermal coated cast iron manifolds the amount of heat is crazy, and with air cleaner on pass side it sits partially over exhaust sucking up nice hot air.
My thoughts are to install a factory looking air scoop with hopes of it partially allowing hot air to escape when sitting and of course when driving pushing cool air in. Im going to be using oem air cleaners not the velocity stacks .
Any ideas on this? Who makes an accurate fiberglass scoop thats well made. Lastly I noticed on Ebay (I know about other post pertaining to ebay) a guy sells a template for making proper spacing of air inlets etc. Is his template accurate as per his advert? Thanks
