Stock hood configuration clarification

Rory McNeil · 06-25-2019, 08:23 PM

Just curious if the "hood must match engine used" gets thrown out the window if the car runs in a S/S GT class. Like if a guy built, say a 69 Plymouth Road Runner with a 1980 318 Thermoquad combo, could he use the 69 Road Runner scooped, fiberglass lift off hood that came on the 3 x 2 barrel models? Or say a 1972 454 360HP engine in a 69 Corvette, would he be allowed to use the L88 hood? Could be interesting if somebody put together a 68 Hemi Dart or Barracuda body package together with a MoPar small or big block Wedge as a GT combo.
