    well i just got the summit scoop in the mail on friday, the front opening was molded shut so i took thhe sawsall and an air grinder to it and opened up the front, i sprayed some john deere high gloss black paint on it saturday and cut the hole in the hood sunday with the plasma cutter, in the next few days i will be fabbing up a sheetmetal box for the carb to make the scoop fully functional as a cold air intake. here are some pics of it installed, let me know what ya think.

    That looks awesome man. :D Can't wait to see how you mod the carb and surrounding apparatus to make that thing fully functional, should be just as cool. Remember to post pics!! ;)
