    This is the hood I used to repair my floor board. Thats my little helper Jacob to the left. He told me today that he wants his first car to be a red Maverick but he wants flames on it. He wants it to be fast like "The Flash". I guess I need to hurry with the "924 MAV" project and begin looking for project "Flash MAV".

    Think of it this way, other than Maverick Man's carbon fiber hoods, that is probably one of the lightest hoods around!!! :rolleyes:

    Maybe I can make the intake to fit that many carbs. What do ya'll think? Then I could use the hood for project "Flash MAV".

    One big air scoop and it will look good as new.

    I think a lot of us budget hot rodders have those fans... fairly cheap and work well.
