ThunderBat Posted November 4, 2004 Report Share Posted November 4, 2004 has anyone here done a ram air hood for their cutty?...whether its functional or not...added scoops or the whole hood...and if so where did you get it from? I just think a twin scooped hood a'la 442 would look pretty cool...any feedback? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CodeRedZ24 Posted November 4, 2004 Report Share Posted November 4, 2004 might be cool but the only hood i know out for the cutlasses is a cowl hood Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aaron Posted November 4, 2004 Report Share Posted November 4, 2004 Not my thing, they look "I cut a hole and put em in," not professional. I don't know, just my opinion... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Euro Posted November 4, 2004 Report Share Posted November 4, 2004 i agree, that cutty looks ugly with those hood scoops. But those scoops are just JC Whitney style. nothing special. on a side note, when you have Nopi and Import Tuner as your fav. links, and that fart cannon on a cutty, you're a wanna be ricer.

Carotop Posted November 5, 2004 Report Share Posted November 5, 2004 I thought it looked all right from far away. But then I noticed they were backwords and really poorly put in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dsgrntld187 Posted November 5, 2004 Report Share Posted November 5, 2004 I'm just gonna shell out however much it is for that cowl hood. My cars going to undergo a major change next year, ala rebuild. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThunderBat Posted November 5, 2004 Author Report Share Posted November 5, 2004 this is a crude chop but kinda what I had in mind... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mizouse Posted November 5, 2004 Report Share Posted November 5, 2004 Just a thought. Has anyone ever done, or just thought of puting a small single ram air scoop deal just right above the airbox to force air in. Nothing huge like the whole "fake me out" Ram Air setup, but just a small functional scoop? Just an idea I've been thinking about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dsgrntld187 Posted November 5, 2004 Report Share Posted November 5, 2004 I thought about that, and then running my WAI up into it to make it a ram air. I also thought about modifying the Grand Am Ram Air and using the "grilles" on the Cutlass Supreme to draw in air for it, but I don't know if that would work.

matts93z34 Posted November 5, 2004 Report Share Posted November 5, 2004 I know its not a cutty but this is what the ram air looks like on my z This is a functional hood made by me. these are the scoops that you can get from jegs or summit or jc whitney. I made a mold of them out of fiberglass cut them in half and extended them the lenght of the hood. The cut out is right above my intake so fresh cold air comes in there and the hot air escapes out of the stock vents on a z hood. Hope that helps a lillte.

ThunderBat Posted November 5, 2004 Author Report Share Posted November 5, 2004 I'm gonna try another chop this weekend when I'm off and I can take a little time at it...what I really have in mind are the W-30 style hoods. The twin intake style, long rectangular slots near the leading edge of the hood. I'm not sure which year model they came on but I think it was early 70s.

Intlcutlass Posted November 5, 2004 Report Share Posted November 5, 2004 How about instead of a scoop, a hood vent... Cut a line behind the radiator and dip the metal down... Something like this from the fiero forum: http://www.fiero.nl/forum/Archives/Archive-000002/HTML/20041015-1-015543.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
