Well dude,

    I gotta say, unless youe running a supercharged 800hp big block motor
pullin' 10 second quarter miles, it is a little rediculous, I say ditch it
and get something a little less "in your face" like a shaker hood or cowl
induction hood that is functional but appropriate for the mods your truck
has, and after reviewing your mods I'd say you really dont need a scoop at
all, but I understand the "looks cool" aspect. Currently "looks like major
overkill" and some cop looking to mess with someone would say "looks like
obstruction of view".
