[Tigers] hood scoop

[LARRY PAULICK]

A hood scoop, looks cool, but does very little for performance.  What is needed is a cold air induction box connected to the carburetor, so that the air from the scoop goes directly to the carb.  This has been used for years in racing, and NASCAR uses the high-pressure area of the windshield for the hood scoop, with the 
air inlet of the scoop facing the windshield. Here's the cold air box that I made for my tiger.
