i like your scoop alot better than the one that was linked that one had a funny nose like scoop.

great job overall looking real sharp. maybe if i ever have the courage to cut a hole in my hood i will gather the parts to custom make one modeled after yours.

wish more of your pics were coming through only saw a few of the later ones you posted.

I'm going to make something out of parts I can get from Lowes

 

sweet setup sleddogg.
id buy the kit

but lifeguardjoe, if u do it with stuff from lowes, please tell us how! i have credit there

 

Smok][n,

Its sounds like if ya want one you would have to buy the scoop from Ford now as Neal doesnt have any left. Which may not be to bad, because I think the come painted from Ford, but would need to be modded to fit the F150.
Yeah Joe I want to see it too. I get an image of heat ducts and dryer pieces. Chrome flex tube,

WOW ,Good job ! I was thinking of doing something similar ,but I want it attached to the hood,All I have right now is the opening..

 

Roushfan,

I thought of that but coldnt find any kind of hose or duct that would stretch and recoil correct when openning and closing the hood, so when this way.

No, im sure neal still has that one left, i havent purchased it, Im going to have to wait before i do any mods like that, i was thinking of buying it and keeping it til i was ready but id rather someone else buy it that will make great use of it A.S.A.P.

Actually, I was thinking of something a little better than that, but who knows. I'm going there Monday and just seeing what might be feasible at a reasonable price. Just curious, what did the parts you bought run you sleddogg?

 

Joe, I picked up the parts at a local yard for $12. The foam cost like $12 , and the metal I used for bracing was free. I already had it. Bout 2 hours to rework it all and make it fit. I have really been supprised how tight the seal is on the hood and how little rain does get in it. This morning though, was a little stormy on the way home from work, leaves falling and stuff, well this one leaf got to close I guess, , sucked that thing rite in at like 55 mph. Got home and pulled it off the filter. LOL
I did that walk around Lowes, HD, stuff and couldnt find anything I though would look good other than the foam seals.
I took some measurements and spent a hour or so wandering the junk yard popping hoods till I found what I was looking for. The intake tube came off a 93 T-bird my son fried, but it was the only one I found that was long enough.

Hey, just went to the front of this thread and noticed some pics are gone. I cleaned up and orginized my gallery, must have caused some to not show. All pics are there though for the scoop and stuff.

How to the Mustang MACH1s with the Shaker hood do it, is it routed over to the air filter and back, or do they have a filter sitting on top like the good ol' days?



i'm sure it would be a lot more work, but might be slick, and a little more efficient - less turns and twists.

did some looking - the new ones do route it around in a U also...

 

The factory Stangs arent funtional. The shaker hoods I knew went around. I looked at anyay to shorten the passage, but with the MA and all there really isnt a way to do it. The only way I could think to engineer it shorter wold leave the filter to likely to be exsposed to rain through the scoop. Oh the good old carburater days.

Well not exactly what I was thinking..I have the open top airbox from JLP...I was thinking of a flat duct mounted to the underside of the hood,in turn dumping into the top of my airbox..
