[Tigers] Bolt-on Hood Scoop On Original Hood?

[steve wick]

You might consider the hood scoop from a 2006-2008 Shelby GT (not GT500)
Mustang. Mine looks like the originals', including fake rivets around the
perimeter, but is bolted on from underneath. It's non-functional but it
shouldn't be to much of a problem to make it functional. The plus side is,
they are new and available. Just another option.

  The scoop you are referring to was very much like (or the same as) those
used
  on the 289 Cobra racecars.  I know Steve Alcala (El Segundo, CA) used to
sell
  them and he may still.  The scoop was not bolted on, but riveted on.  The
hole
  depends on what air cleaner is in use.  Measure carefully!

  Has anyone seen or used an original Tiger/Alpine hood with a bolt-on hood
  scoop instead of an LAT hood?  If so, what kind of scoop (Thunderbird?)?  I
  wonder what sort of hole would need to be cut into the hood for the scoop.
  Does anyone have any pictures, top and bottom side of such a hood that they
  would be willing to send to me, please?  Thanks in advance!  Mauro
