A friend of mine is going to order a Fiberglass cowlhood, but the hood builder need to know which cowl scoop (dimensions) he wants. Can any of the 68/69 Skylark drivers chime in, and give me the dimensions etc they orderd for there car. And if you can post a picture here of your car with that on hood on it. Cause I know there are different ones you can get. (one goes right up and the front of the hood and the other goes up slowly from the front) Details on his car, its a street/strip 68 Skylark with 468 Buick, B4B intake, 850Holley DP, SP400, 12bolt with 4.10 gears. So I think a cowlhood in the 4 inch high range would be the best for a street/strip car, just do not know the length.. Tnx Robert Noeken
Contact Dmoore here.....He has one of the better looking/fitting cowl scoops on a 68/69 car http://www.v8buick.com/member.php?104-DMoore
We have a 4" cowl on our 69. I measured the length and it was around 50 to 52 inches. It was sitting on top of the car so the length is a rough measurement.
Just had my son help me get a better measurement. Cowl is 50" overall with 3" of overhang that extends beyond the hood toward the windshield. So 47" on the hood.
