NY Turbo II Hood scoop?

Hey guys where can I get a TII style scoop for my 85? I knew of a place a long time ago that sold them but they have since closed down. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks, Ed

Buy a TII hood, cut out the scoop and patch it on your FB hood. Steel hoods can be welded, alluminum hoods require extra work. Re-finish, Re-paint! DONE!

If anyone makes this as a pre-fabbed hood, they just might become a millionaire....or at least sell a good amout of them.

The problem is that everyone wants the scoop in different locations. Many FB owners want the scoop centered while the factory scoop is actuall off-center (for function).

Good luck, and post back if you find a place. I will be the fist on the list with cash in hand as long as its a reasonable price!

JC Whitney sells plastic hood scoops you can glue on.
