Yeah that's one of next winters projects. I basically bought the other two rotted out hoods to practice on in case I messed up cutting the hole. I'm going to open the front of the scoop and either change to an RPM intake or space my carb up(maybe both) till the open top air cleaner is in the incoming air stream. Might be wasting my time but I figure if I don't like it I still have my old hood to go back to.
