Hood scoops
I ordered a 69 cougar eliminator bolt on for mine(lower/wider boss429 looking thing) Will put some pics up if I ever get it, and get it mounted(shoulda been here last week). I'll relocate the washer nozzles too- at first I was thinking about hiding the sprayers right in the scoop, till I saw CDC'c car at Columbus- the nozzles on the wiper make sense, long as you dont mind poking holes, and they wont dribble on the hood anymore [img]/forums/images/smiles/icon_smile.gif[/img]
CDC has nice stuff(picked up sequentials and my son just HAD to getthe painted pony) but I'm still a bit leery of 'sticking' something big as a hoodscoop on without at least a couple bolts...the factory mirror fell out of our windstar, that convinced me even OEM prepping may not insure it cant ever loosen and fly away...I'm kinda paranoid about something blowing off [img]/forums/images/smiles/icon_smile.gif[/img]
I wanted the CDC shaker, but they were out of stock at the show- looking at the display unit, could see no way a roots blower would ever sit under it...so opted for the wider eliminator scoop, going to try ducting from both rear corners for true CAI, and straddling a space for future blower. I'd read some guys mileage went from 26 hwy to 30 by only adding a shaker- if cold air does that, just gotta have it- and a little better power from a true cold air setup would be great too [img]/forums/images/smiles/icon_smile.gif[/img]
