Luce, if you do a little research here you will find that the concept of the hood scoop on a cobra being a working ram air or forced induction design is a misnomer. At speed, a boundary layer of stagnant air sets up along the hood line that is 2-3" thick, your scoop isn't grabbing any air - but if your carb intake is sealed to the hood, then you can suck ambient air in versus the hotter under hood air and that will give you better combustion due to the denser/cooler air intake.
