I like it, it would be perfect if you could somehow get ur air filter directly under it like the old muscle cars, just cut hole in hood and direct ram air. Either way i think that looks sick on ur ram.
Its not a fun endevour. The piece I bought to seal my scoop to the tb was discontinued, and at that it didnt seal very well. I needed a little more time to get it right.

ok guys, sorry to dissapoint you, it was canada day yesterday and all the stores were close= no primer,but i snapped some right now of thescoop in red. im in the proccess tn of moulding it to the shape of the ram hood., slightly more curved than the mustang. but o well here it is.

and i wasnt knockin the bought scoop hoods, theres just a large concentration of people with s10s and a cowl hood. i just wanna turn heads with this scoop.




srry about the blurry shots, i snapped em quick lol.

LOL!! I called in some parts from a supplier in Canada the other day. When I told him what I needed, he said, "sorry, but everyone is closed today, eh". "Why, eh?" "Cause its canada day, eh." "Canada day, eh?" "Yeah eh, no one but us janitorial staff in today, eh."

You could put an edelbrock pro-flo in there (the think that looks like a bicycle seat). Or get one of the 14x3 round aircleaners where the top of the aircleaner isfilter too instead of metal, eh?
