I hate to point out the obvious - aside from the fact that there's a mailbox in the middle of the hood - but doesn't a scoop need a way for air to actually get into the intake?
[ŌŌ]ƖƖƖƖƖƖƖƖƖƖƖƖƖƖƖƖƖƖƖƖƖƖƖƖƖƖƖ[ŌŌ] = 68
[ŌŌ][ƖƖƖƖƖƖƖƖƖƖƖ][ƖƖƖƖƖƖƖƖƖƖƖ][ŌŌ] = 69
(ŌŌ)[ƗƗƗƗƗƗƗƗƗƗƗƗƗƗƗƗƗƗ](ŌŌ) = 70

:smilielol:

Have not decided quite yet if it will have a filter on the bottom with a duct plumbed to the front, or a just some holes in the front door. It has to work with whatever becomes my filtering medium.  :scratchchin:

so, if the flag goes down while driving, does that mean you reached warp speed?

how does the mailman deliver the mail to you?

My mailman is elusive, especially on Saturday. Next time he goes flying buy, I'll be ready to catch up with him. What did you think I built this thing for?

Before you go driving you just open the door on the mail box, duh!

Gotta love the 924. I was going to get a 931 hood for my 944 but this seems like a better idea.

I wonder if Stuart has seen this yet...probably not..no popcorn has shown up  :D

Just noticed that the mailbox needs to be taller...I don't think the door will open as it sits

RallyeMike

Drache pegged the original general idea: Ready to race? Open the hood, remove any mail, drop the mail door, close the hood = instant scoop. The mail door wont fly up in the wind because it's under the hood.

Racing done? Park it in the yard and close the door to keep the critters out.  

We'll see if the idea survives how I end up filtering the air.



.... Oh yea, forgot to include sales tax in my original cost, so this might not be as good of a deal as I led people to believe. Sorry about that.   :icon_smile_blackeye:

As much as I hate to admit this, the boss man's '88 Mercury Cougar 331 Stroker has a piece of Duckwork from Lowes on one side and no hood.
Yes, it also has "Dirty White Boy" decal'ed down the side as well.


And Mopar's I've heard him say(Chevy and Ford guy), are hurting the shop's image at car shows....... :brickwall:

You'd probably get lots of interesting looks at a local PCA event with that setup.

Poor toofah...


I kinda want a 931 hood for my 951, too.  Of course, my 931 has a 931 hood on it...
