I’d be more than happy to share if needed but NHRA has accepted this for over four decades, therefore, it’s a non-issue. Now, the AAR glass hood for non 340 Six Barrel ‘Cudas, that’s another story…

Yes, for the Challenger T/A hood, it is the N94 hood option.
The T/A hood option was available for all engine options as follows:
340/440- Six Pack: P/N 3577395
426 Hemi: P/N 3577396
340/440 - 4 Barrel: P/N 3577457
383 - 4 Barrel: P/N 3577458
Before Billy Nees says it does not exist, these part numbers are straight from the OEM 1970-1971, Chrysler Parts Catalog, Version 14-29-0; not from a racing catalog.
There are documented cars with these hoods and the carburetor base assemblies brings lots of money in the Hemmings catalog.
