I am looking for some ideas on how to mount my scoop to the engine , currently it’s molded to the hood and it’s heavy and need to fuel every run since put it on methanol. Appreciate it guys

Consider mounting a trap door on the hood above the tank fill cap if possible.

I remove a 3rd gen FG cowl hood every run (by myself) to fuel. I don’t mind as it allows me a chance to see everything under the hood between rds. I’m considering racing with this hood off in the near future.

Markemark , I thought of the trap door as well, I need to take the hood as well to take off oil fill and the vacuum line off to let the methanol evaporate, thank you sir

My scoop has two dzus tabs mounted to firewall at top of firewall for the back. For the front we replaced the top two water pump bolts with longer bolts and made a bracket that has chrome moly uprights with tabs welded to the top of them. Cross bar between the two. May be able to post a pic later.

Mount it to the trailer roof with the random wrenches.

Not knowing what your car is but could you put hood hinges back on it

Slick Vic I like the idea simple little fabrication, Great idea Head Gámez but I can’t find any of my tools lol . Still got jokes , its sold super gas super street car why in the world I thought it would be a good idea to be able to take the hood on and off was a great idea I’ll never know.

My buddy’s tube chassis Camaro has two really simple brackets mounted on firewall and front is 3/8” tubes running up from front of cylinder heads with a cross bar connecting them with dzuz tabs on ends
