Eric,
You know I'm crazy for the hood. My main concern is that it be
functional. I want realtively cooler air going into the K&N FIPK than
what's under the hood, especially with the headers heating things up.
I've always liked the looks of the shaker hood, but is that the best we
can do for our Daks(not a criticism, just a real question, the answer to
which I don't know)? I mean, you are the man and know what's what. I
trust and respect your knowledge and skill, to say nothing of the
performance you've gotten from your R&D. If you believe one design is
more functional that another (enables better performance), that's the one
I want. I guess it might be helpful if you could post some sketches.
Like, here's the proposed shaker hood and I believe it'll do x. And
here's a cowl hood and it'll do y. And here's the air-grabber and it'll
do z.
I know the shaker will look great. Maybe add the new Ram's head medallion
like on the newer Daks and some of that neat pinstriping like on the R/T
hoods, too.
