The final fit of the scoop to the hood after contouring.

As you can see, the scoop is centered on the hood and will provide quite a bit of room for the carb. The opening is right at the leading edge of the hood.
Using the cutoff wheel I removed the material along the pencil line and then started hand fitting it with a sanding block and 80-grit paper. As of right now I have it fitting pretty good and I need to start laying in the fiberglass matting and do the finish work. I will show how to do that in a later article. I will see you next month!
Remember, there is always HOPE (real hope). And, when in doubt… DO A WHEELIE! ![]()
