That hood deal? Got me. I have taped the scoops up on my WS6 daily driver, it ran the same times both ways. I have dyno tested several on my old chassis dyno. If I gave you twenty dyno sheets, half ram air & half not, you could not tell me which were which. The low restriction exhaust that comes with the hood does not make as much difference as they vary car-to-car due to production tolerances and how they were broken in.
You just proved my point exactly Ed.
Thank you.
Just goes to show that GM under rated it at least 30 HP.
Ask Monte Howard, or Mike Walter who were very accomplished stocker racers in their own right how they felt about the LT-1 HP when they hit the scene.
GM had their day in the S/SS sun for a long time when they were supplying NHRA with bags of cash and vehicles.
