Hello Greg.

My scoop has the curved leading edge. It's taller, and wider than the standard scoop, but because it's wider, it sits on a lower portion of the hood, so the height of the scoop at the center of the hood is not that much different than that of the standard scoop.

Yes, those intakes are part of my collection of parts that at one time I fantasized about utilizing ! I believe there were only about 10-20 pairs of original weber 58mm downdrafts ever made, I think initially for Indy cars. Hilborn fabricated mechanical fuel injeciton throttle bodies to the 58mm weber intake.
