Bob,

Actually, the E-M is a direct splash from a Cobra ( Gen III model). The new E-M is a extended wheel base, dont ask me why they did that.

As Tom mentioned on his Shelby the passenger front hit the carb lip, which is the same as mine. I was able to grind a tad in the underside to avoid the rubbing.

Now that I have decided to go with a non- molded scoop I will cut the hood according to what is needed.

I am not sure what I will need to fill in the hole. As I placed the new scoop on top of the molded scoop itlookas as if I might have to extend the lip of the opening by 2 inches on either side.

I am not sure how to do this, would someone please walk me though what I will need to get started or should I just find a body shop to do this

Thanks
