slngshy,

Those cleclos will only hold that scoop on for a very short time when driving....or are they the Electrical connectors that you use to start Franklin 7’s pulse in that mad workshop you have…..just kidding.

Looks good and even looks menacing in flat black.

There's quite a few "flat" colors out there nowadays.... My 67 truck was flat blue during the time I learned that I can't do bodywork either.

Hey Martin, clecos are temporary until I finish sanding. before the last layer of paint, I'll be riveting it in place.

Mazda, why are you bothering with a hood scoop? The Blower will NEVER fit under it. :willy_nilly:

Cumberland wouldn't let me autox without a hood last year :crazy:

 

blower would be nice, but FRANKN7 will stay normally aspirated. If money just starts pouring into my bank account, the next step up is a built LS2 or LS3. That'll get me another 80-100hp. but that's gonna be a while

[drew...]

ANOTHER???? 80-100 horsepower?

Some might say there is a point of diminishing returns but I don't think there will be many in this group:jester:

You sound like Jeremy Clarkson :lol:

[scannon]

Some others might say too much horsepower is just about right.

[jimrankin]

I'm not sure that the phrase "too much horspower" is even a necessary part of the english language. Oh, it could always be used as, the other guy had "too much horsepower" so I still need more.

[jwduncan]

The hood looks great. Can't wait to see it in person.

 

More power sounds good, then you'll want tires with more grip.

[RubberBanjos]

this aint a 7 is it, more like a hot rod

Dolly Parton becomes flatchested when you hit the gas.:jester:

[NEVERSATISFIED]

I am new here, and that thing is just plain mean. What kind is that? That is just like what I would want for the track.

[TheDingo8MyBaby]

Have you considered modifying the chin spoiler with the same crease? Maybe give it a bit of a V shape to match the scooop... Just a thought. I must say I love the look of it.
