Air Flow through hood scoop
I have modified my JBL hood scoop and made it even higher, to suit my Ram SC, and its on more of a slope which lessens the front height! Will post a picture soon.
I guess that the front facing scoops dont work that well, but they might if you can get the air away from them or exhaust as the aeroplanes, GT40 Radiator vents etc. I am building a car of the 1960's and thats what they did, I looked at a reverse scoop and I dont think it will do, but I think a nice scoop tray around the carb, that doesnt seal that well around its base will help separate the under hood pressure and my carb should have adequate air!
Jac Mac suggested to block the front off and try and take air from the rear of hood, while still retaining the original look, but I still have that ugly scoop. In the UK, with the race cobra some have the air filter protruding out of the top of the scoop!
