really like the classic auto one
I would not use a traditional cowl induction because I don't really like the look
The last pic is pretty well what I was envisioning yes.
You can actually buy a hood with the cowl molded into it from 1 supplier.
I also think I understand what you're after. You're looking for something a little more subtle, something that looks like it may have been a factory option or maybe a dealer installed package, kinda like a Yenko Camaro, Nova, Chevelle, etc. At least that's what I'm taking from it.
