Though if I can get this scoop I've been wanting a long time, I will see if it works around my intake and piping. It's a bigtime throwback look.

If, by chance I DID race on the street, it wouldn’t be up there. Should we end up at the track on the same day, I won’t hesitate.

I was kinda kidding Diehl Road in Naperville was a great street racing spot 20 years ago and now it's all built up. But it would be cool to meet up.

Yeah he just snapped a pic of the scoop for me on one of his vehicles for scale.

This hood idea is secondary plus I'm not 100% sure it will clear my intake pipe yet.

Drove the car 90 minutes today mostly in traffic, never skipped a beat. That gets me to around 10 hours of total street driving. Did a long pull on the Kennedy, 14 lbs feels good, feels like a mid 9 second power level.
