I have the traditional hood scoops on my SPF, GT 350 clone and 57 TBird and am always amazed at how little water gets into the engine bay when driving at highway speeds in torrential rain . There is always water on the front lower frame rails and lower inside fender shields etc, as well as on top of the radiator shroud/surround- most of that is from the tires .
Interesting is that there is very little water, or water spots, on top of the engine, valve covers or air filter lid . It is almost like there is a blockout plate on the hood scoop opening or a natural created air dam . Go figure , as with the scoops I would expect monumental amounts of water . Bill
