Real hood scoops for the hood

[bryanjeep]

Anybody know where I can get a nice looking hood scoop for my YJ. I mean the kind that sits on the hood, not the cowl. I know 4wd.com has them, but who else does? I think it would look cool with the whole new engine setup!

Just about anybody that makes fiberglass body parts has a line of hood scoops. Harwood, Aero, Unlimited products, US Bodysource. Do a web search for fiberglass scoops. A cheap alternative is an ABS plastic scoop, but I don't know if they can be painted. The kind with the internal bolt flange are nice, and they are easy to install.

I just got a mopar twin inlet scoop for mine. I can't wait to get it on, but I have to make a new base for it first.

do NOT get those pointless stick-on non-functional rice scoops

trust me, i WILL be getting the cutter out!

IS there one that can be opened and closed as needed?

Alot of GM factory scoops had vacuum or electric motors to control flaps in the scoops. On the 80-81 Z28 the cowl induction only opened when the back barrels on the carb opened, same as on the70-72 SS Chevelle hood and others. If you get an aero or snorkle style scoop, you can run a scoop plug when you don't want it open.

That's sweet! I love aero style scoops. They just look like they were designed for a Jeep hood.

A buddy of mine picked up the plastic hood louvers from a Grand Prix, he'll be putting them on his XJ to vent all the heat under the hood. They've even got splash shields that mount under the hood, under the louvers.
