New hood opinion

[Squatting Dog]

It might be nice to have additional space under the hood for shock tower brace with 3.0 Fox remote reservoir mounted up high instead of next to skidplate.

this also could be a nice option for guys with superchargers. it may help reduce heat soaking of the blower.

if it doesnt help who cares i think it will just look bad ass!

another thought, what about some sort of ram air? some nice looking air inlet that routes the cool fresh air to dump down on the top of the intake filter would be sick. i had that on my last truck with heat extractors and i loved it



old pic but its the best i got of the hood

Meh. I like the lines of the stock hood just make a bigger cowl and keep heat extractors and maybe one hood scoop for an air inlet.

Now if it is designed like the 69 Chevys with the crowells opening up in the back I would definitely add it to my to do lists.

Personally I would not put a chevy style cowl or chevy Z28 style hood on a Ford, but hey to each his own.

I actually like this idea, but in conjunction with the Raptor OEM extractors ...

Especially if the front intakes are channeled over to the air intake (Ram Air) …

yep.. using OEM raptor extractors would look good... Not obnoxious L88 style hood scoop...

They are going to do my hood in real carbon fiber but it will also be available in fiberglass. I will pass along any thoughts and ideas to them. Thanks again
