Default Re: Should I Day 2 my Chevelle

I would say 68 to 71 era. But again, I'm not that big on everything being dead on. In other words I'm not going to change my Spal fans and fabbed shroud.
The hood is a must have with the intake I am running at the present time. The HVH made 704 h.p. and the much shorter Performer RPM was 38 h.p. less.
But I don't really care about that stuff anymore. I should be able to go back to a flat hood with the C454 intake.
The attached picture is when I had the RPM intake installed. I took a stock Camaro air cleaner and modified it to a dual snorkle. Everything fit under the stock hood, but I had a Pro Systems 4150 carb. at that time.
BTW..the cowl hood is all steel. I made the scoop out of 18 gauge steel.
