I agree 100% but with the hood on the 350 there is no room above the throttle bodies without either changing to a HR hood or modding the standard one and I really wanted to keep it looking standard so I have been looking out for a HR hood but I'm in no rush as I'm still playing with my DIY air ride set-up

A hood scoop will give you the room, assuming it's broad and long enough. It wouldn't need to be tall, even a couple inches would probably work.
The framing of the hood underneath in the area of the t.b.'s could be removed and then fortified to make up for the lost support, with or without a scoop. Then perhaps a cowl induction deal could take the place of the scoop.

Did you get this setup tuned yet? Got any dyno charts?

Either way, I'm digging your show.

lots of way's of doing it but I would like to keep it looking standard which is the hard part
I've only tuned it on the road so no dyno figures but I have been using it like this for about 4-5 months sounds awesome

Sort one out?
It's not exactly a deck of cards, now is it?
My spin on Bricktop's line about gorgeous George being "lost" while talking to Turkish.
Sorry, its the only English English I know but here in the states I suppose we'd say something like "WTF MAN!"
