Bolt on Cowl scoop?
Tonycando:
6” would be my choice also but depending on where the curve comes up on the cowl 4” would maybe work,I’d rather not buy and then work on it so I’ll continue my search.
Tonycando:
Has anyone ever put a teardrop scoop on a Pinto,curious how this would look. Might have to. Uh one just to see..
Reeves1:
Just looked at some on line & the curve looks like it may set too far forward ?
I know on my car the carb/air cleaner is way back....will take pics later & measurements.
Waiting on day light before heading to the shop...
Reeves1:
Had to cut the old scoop to get the hood on. That is a (too small) 9" K&N filter.
To the engine compartment seal surface it is 5 3/4" or 10 1/2" to carb center
Absolute min scoop height for mine will have to be 5" , but 6" will be better.
The hood support under the back will also need some cut out, so a bigger air filter can be used.
Blue car will be much worse for clearance.
Reeves1:
Blue car. Carb has 1" to the cowl lip.
