Lets put the Z28 can in all the SBC, it fits.
Or allow 70 and 71 E body 440 6 barrel cars use the aluminum Edelbrock intake manifold that only came on the 69 B12 Road Runner and Super Bees, rather than the cast iron manifold that the 70 and 71 3x2 barrel car actually came with? Or the fiberglass hood that was only factory installed on the 340 AAR Cuda and T/A Challengers, on any E Body? What was the old saying about people who live in glass houses?

Having raced and owned Mopars in the past and also, family members having owned A, B, and E Body Mopars, I can say that the E-Body Challengers did have the T/A fiberglass hood under the N94 code option and it has been documented and OEM part numbers available.

My college roommate had an original, Orange, 1970 Challenger R/T Hemi, with the N94 code option and the T/A hood.

P1970-1971 Chrysler Parts Catalog:
-- Retainer = base / cover = lid --
N94 - CHALLENGER - fiber glass hood - air cleaners
COVER
340 or 440 eng., w/3-2 bbl. carb. - #3577 395
426 eng. chrome w/decal - #3577 396
RETAINER
340 or 440 eng., w/3-2 bbl. carb. - #3577 385
426 eng. w/2-4 bbl. carb. - #3577 394
BODY
340 4bbl. eng. - #3577 457
383 4bbl. eng. - #3577 458
COVER PLATE w/fresh air - #3577 459
COVER PLATE ASSY w/fresh air - #3577 387

Here is an actual VIN of a Challenger with the N94 code option, 383-4BBL, 4 Speed

The only Cuda to have a fiberglass hood was the AAR with the 340-6.
