I’m trying to evaluate Mopar options for spicing up my flat hood on the 71 Charger. The power bulge hood is what I really want, but I think the 1966-67 hemi scoop may look good on the 71 and is substantially less money. Anyone know of a car with one and have a photo?

Is this what Bob had on his green machine?
Anyway, my only personal rule on hood scoops is that I generally like to keep them within the family. So Mopar hoodscoops on Mopars, Ford on Ford, GM on GM. But that's just me.

I think the scoop on Bob's Charger is 6pack bees, no 66/67 Hemi Charger like the one mike posted. I'm not fan of scoops. Actually I preffer the dual scoop setup which is somehow less disturbing. But between both posted, preffer the 66/67, which is lower profile between those. If I was to install a scoop, will make it definitelly functional I can like also the maxwedge one ( second )

Mine was the hemi. I added the center post for stability. The hood and scoop were fiberglass made in one unit.

Get the power bulge you want. Everything else is uncivilized. Though pricey, you will never regret having the best in life.

or... well, a shaker hood Gary did a nice custom Shaker hood on his wifes Charger. One of the very few custom hoods that I will admit looks good.
