Hey guys, been a while since Ive posted much of anything but I have been slowly making progress on my Slanted Duster between school and work. Currently I am getting all the "final" body work done before I primer the car.

I am taking a spare Duster hood I have and I am going to use it for my scoop hood. I decided I want to go with a 6-pack style hood or use the "dual snorkel" style they used on the later A-bodies. I would prefer to find a functional scoop, not the tape down style a lot of places seem to have. Im working on a budget but I want at least a little bit of quality. If you know of a good place to get these let me know. Thanks for the help.

There are a lot of places reproducing the dual snorkel, and everyone does a Six Pack scoop. Since you are using a steel hood, a bolt-on scoop is the way to go. I can't remember who, but there is a company making a bolt-on dual snorkel for around $200.

This is one area where you will get what you pay for. The cheap scoops will be bond-on and will not fit real well.

there is a place called www.autobodyspecialt.com (its spelled right) they have fiberglass repoduction parts hoods, bumpers, and finders for the dusters demons darts and other mighty mopars. they got everything form stock lookin hoods to 6-packand more but they run from 300 to 700 dollars it is a better deal then those bolt ons

Check with Mopars By Crane. Aaron got a twin snorkel from them that looks awesome on his '74 Dart Sport. It was less than $200 and is hand-laid fiberglass. The outer lip tucks under about 1-1/2" to give you something to screw to from below. It looks just like the OEM scoop.

For some reason, their website isn't working right now. I'll try to get a phone number for you.

Here ya go. I'll even do you one better. How about pics and all...

Try VFN fiberglass.....I've heard they make good stuff, price is great, but you'll have to wait. They have about a 4-6 week wait on parts.

We sell that same scoop as Mopars by crane. This will mount like original one. Less then $200 to the door. Nice piece. Hope this helps Don

Take a hammer in one hand. Place the other hand on a firm surface. Strike free hand with hammer.

This hurts, but you aren't out $200 at the same time.

If you want headers then buy real headers. If you want better manifolds you want the Dutra Duals.

I thought he was talking about a hood scoop.

Growing older is unavoidable but growing up is strictly optional.

I know I was talking about hood scoops.
That came completely out of left field...

It was a smack against "mopars by crane", based on the other posts throughout the site.
