I was also talking to my bodyshop about this. We are planing to mave a hood scoop that opens up at around 3000 rpm. under 3 grand it will stay closed and be level with the hood. After 3 grand it opens up and lets in cold air to your engine when it needs it most. Any question resopnd or email me at theblacknight01@hotmail.com or talk to NVS Mystique (Aaron)

Prices, and could it be made in show quality carbon fiber? Would it work for both duratecs and contours? And can a switch be installed to keep it closed on rainy days? Thanks.

I was thinking of the same thing...watching Trucks this weekend and they put a fiberglass cowl induction hood on a Chevy truck with a vacuum actuated flap that popped up during acceleration. Same thing was on the original SS Chevelle's '70-'72. This one had a channel on the bottom side of the hood that went over to the intake area and provided it with the cold air off the windshield (cowl area). When it opens it draws air from the back side not the front so rain would not be a real issue, but you could put a manual shut off valve in the vacuum line if you like. This could be possibly be done on the stock hood if the clearance is enough...but would definitely be possible if the hood swelled up in the center kind of like the old cowl induction hoods available for Mustangs.
Definitely worth looking into.

im not sure about the carbon fiber but i will ask. This is for all contours 4 and 6 cylander. We are working on a way to do a shut of switch so it will beable be open and close manually if you prefer as well as the automatic. the price is not set yet we want to know if its worth proceding first. But let me put it this way. This guy is a god when it comes to this stuff. if we want t to do this stuff it will dont worry.
