I use a flat cap screw for my air cleaner. Sits flush and comes off with an allen wrench!

I saw where a guy used the hood scoop as a female mold and laid up a fibreglass part . Then he seamlessly incorporated onto the hood. The original car was just pop riveted it on. Oh when filling cracks and divits don,t use just raw resin. There is no structure! Use a coidal silica or micro balloons to make a slurry. The bodies are made from vinyl ester or poly resin. Those product incorporate well with the body. Uhh epoxy works on poly or vinyl ester with no issues. Oh,, I love your dogs.

Love the process. Question. How do you think it would have turned out if the hole in the hood was sized to the turkey pan, and not the scoop?

[@dansgarage2010]

Good question, I’m working on doing that now but not sure. When it came to cutting a hole in the hood I just trusted the process & followed the manual for the most part. But I’m planning on possibly connecting the hood to the turkey pan when closed to create a ram air system of sorts. The turkey pan is an option, that can be removed.

Good info on the hood. Do you think individual blue tooth speakers would be better? I have seen videos of other builders using them.

[@dansgarage2010]

I’m not sure about the individual ones, not real familiar with them. You mean separate speakers like left & right channels?

[@billrajaram2201]

@@dansgarage2010 Yes , I believe so. I didn’t see the full setup but the person had two Bluetooth speakers, under the cubby, between the seats. Possibly marine speakers.
