Would this help cooling off the engine any? I know that heat rises.. but there's no way it's rising out as much as possible when the deckilde is in the way... what kind of scoop shoudl I use? Or should I just toy around and make my own? Show me some examples if you can... and if I don't like the looks I'll just design my own.. I've got the time . Thanks guys... God I love this message board. Lates

This scoop is nice because it follows the lines of the car quite well, and adds a nice vent for the engine. You also can install small electrical fans under the vents next to the decklid- that should increase airflow as well.

John, why yes, they are off the '79, Mustang... Jonathan McCreery has one on his GT, and I will get one, one of these days! If you look on ebay you can find them, and on my other computer I have a website addy that sells replica scoops from the '79 Mustang for 70 bucks. Good deal, I think.
Just a word of caution, I got one off ebay from a site called MPMotorsports. THey sell aftermarket fiberglass stuff, I didn't like the quality of the product, just be warned. I did get a true "Ford" scoop off ebay last week, it came off a 79 Rustang GT. I got it for $20.00, i was the only bidder. I say go for the genuine Ford part over a fiberglass aftermarket, JMO
