They say this is a tribute to the 60's and 70's cars. I think of one make with this hood....

Superbee's (or at least some of them) got a dual scoop hood, but it didn't extend all the way down the hood like that.

Those are Olds OAI or maybe Firebird Formula scoops.

That looks like my Rallye 350 Hood. Time to call the lawyers!

The only dual ones Mopar had were the ones on the pic from Eric. Nicknamed the Raisin Brand. (two scoops).
Scoops at the forward hood were first on Olds, I believe, and testing showed hood scoops function in that position the best.

I think Mercury was the first with the 64 Comet/Caliente.

A little bit like the WS6, a huge amount like the W25 Oldsmobile hood. Man, now I want one for my Challenger.

I'd like to know what good are the scoops going to do if the throttle body is in the front of the motor. You should see the route the air has to take on the new Shaker hood cars. Seems totally useless but looks great. I love the fact that the factories are duking it out with each other. Just wish I could afford one of them.

LOVE the looks of the new Shaker hood cars. A 2015-2017 B5 Blue Scat Pack Shaker 6 speed is in my future for 2018. May need to sell my '96 LT4 'Vette after 18 years and maybe even my lovely 350 '72 Supreme survivor to make it happen sooner, but I will have one.
