As anybody used a bonnet scoop like this before

I know Tapage has a hood scoop on his truck, not sure what type though.

mustang one

got mine in summit racing years ago for decent price ... but when was checking for other one for Marilu prices seems to be higher now

Why???

Why???

I'm just thinking about changing my Nissan one to one of them and that way I can cut the bonnet because it's a reversed scoop

no offense Tapage, but yuck...

And honestly, if my truck deals with the Vegas heat, a V8 and no scoop, why are they necessary.

no offense Tapage, but yuck....

coz it's from stang ...? ( no offense taken .. )

Nope, I am just not a fan of hood scoops.

Heck, the ferd thing does not bother me at all. I have a ford motor in my 60

I think someone on here put a WRX scoop on their hood as well.

Now that I think about it it may have been in the hardcore section.

Opinions needed

Forwards, backwards or not at all?????

Vote 1 for none

Backwards, you get enough air in by the grille, getting heat out is more important.
But put it forward enough for the windshield pressure effect.

 

[Red Rattler]

Why would you want to fit that.

Because with the turbo it doesn't let the heat out quick enough. And if I had a forward facing scoop it will let water onto my electrics when doing river crossings and stuff like that

I had the same issue with my surf. All I done though was space the rear of the bonnet. Just place some washers between the hinge and bonnet, cheap and easy but it works.

It may also suck air into the bonnet as well even though facing backwards because of the thermo fans pulling the air which will be good

Backwards
