I need a new hood scoop, not sure what to get

[76_Cobra_II]

Yes. Although you may run into a problem for your II. The engine's balanced to 50 oz. I would include the flywheel and harmonic balancer, but I'm running a 10.5" clutch, which won't fit into a II bellhousing. This would be a good time to switch to a T5, unless you're planning on putting the engine in the coupe.

I was gonna drop it in the coupe. The coupe only has a C3 tranny though! What else would I need to buy myself that wouldnt be included? Or is the Whole engine coming out? I know I need a new tranny, Im not too good with tranny's so I dont know if a C4 would be good or not! Let me know when your planning to do it and what we can do is make a day out of it if your gonna do the 351 yourself, that way we can take the 302 out, and drop it into mine! I can tow the car there since yur not too far from where I live. Maybe this would be a good Club day???????

I wouldn't be using much of what's on the engine right now, so it would pretty much be complete. I'd also sell you the headers. A C4 would be plenty strong. I will probably be doing the swap at a friend's dad's shop with a lift, so I seriously doubt I could also do your engine swap. If there's someone else at HCMC that will let you use their facilities, I'd be glad to help you out. Also, I had picked up a pair of E7's and was going to have a friend freshen them up and do some mild porting, but I decided to save my money for the 408. I'm sure he'll finish them up and sell them to you for about $200. I'll let you know when I'm about to do the swap. It will probably be this spring.

Is that a 93 Cobra R in the other lane?

looks like a fox to me 89'

 

[jeffnoel]

93 is also a Fox body, last year for the Fox.

It's definitely not an 93 Cobra. Wrong spoiler, wrong bumper cover, no ground effects. Looks like just a red LX. The guy also painted the black trim around the window and sill area and the mirror body color.

 

[1badII]

Yeah, you're right. My bad. The black wheels just stood out to me.

I'm really caught as to what I want to do for a hood scoop.. with my 351w in the car, it sits a lot higher than my 302 did, which I expected.

So now I'm trying to figure out a scoop that will work well. I've thought about the Boss 429 scoop, it's rather large, but I'm not sure how I want to go about it.

I need a scoop that's at least 2.5" tall, 3" is the best bet though.

Any ideas/suggestions?

How about a Shelby GT-500 style scoop? I've always wondered what one would look like on a II.

Im probably gonna go with a Trans Am shaker when my car is all sadi and done, because it looks pretty cool, and its a hell-of-alot cheaper than a mustang/torino shaker!

i know i will be putting on the the cowl ind type from harwood. 4" high and 53" long. will put on hood as far back as i can so it sits closer to the windshield. i'm going to try to make the hood open towards the front instead of the rear.
